To confirm the Majorana signatures, significant effort has been devoted to distinguishing between Majorana zero modes (MZMs) and spatially separated quasi-Majorana modes (QMMs). Because both MZMs and QMMs cause a quantized zero-bias peak in the conductance measurement, their verification task is thought to be very difficult. Here, we proposed a simple device with a single nanowire, where the device could develop clear evidence of the topological Kondo effect in the topologically trivial phase with four QMMs. On the other hand, in the topological superconducting phase with MZMs, the transport signatures are significantly different. Therefore, our scheme provides a simple way to distinguish Majorana and quasi-Majorana modes.

We study the multi-channel Kondo impurity dynamics realized in a mesoscopic superconducting island connected to metallic leads. The effective impurity spin is non-locally realized by Majorana bound states and strongly coupled to lead electrons by non
-Fermi liquid correlations. We explore the spin dynamics and its observable ramifications near the low-temperature fixed point. The topological protection of the system raises the perspective to observe multi-channel Kondo impurity dynamics in experimentally realistic environments.
We study theoretically the electrical current and low-frequency noise for a linear Josephson junction structure on a topological insulator, in which the superconductor forms a closed ring and currents are injected from normal regions inside and outsi
de the ring. We find that this geometry offers a signature for the presence of gapless 1D Majorana fermion modes that are predicted in the channel when the phase difference phi, controlled by the magnetic flux through the ring, is pi. We show that for low temperature the linear conductance jumps when phi passes through pi, accompanied by non-local correlations between the currents from the inside and outside of the ring. We compute the dependence of these features on temperature, voltage and linear dimensions, and discuss the implications for experiments.
We consider transport properties of a hybrid device composed by a quantum dot placed between normal and superconducting reservoirs, and coupled to a Majorana nanowire: a topological superconducting segment hosting Majorana zero-modes at the opposite
ends. It is demonstrated that if topologically protected (nonoverlapping) Majorana zero-modes are formed in the system, zero-bias Andreev conductance through the dot exhibits isoconductance profiles with the shape depending on the spin asymmetry of the coupling between a dot and a topological superconductor. Otherwise, for the topologically trivial situation corresponding to the formation of Andreev bound states, the conductance is insensitive to the spin polarization and the isoconductance signatures disappear. This allows to propose an experimental protocol for distinguishing between isolated Majorana zero-modes and Andreev bound states.
The conductance measurement of a half quantized plateau in a quantum anomalous Hall insulator-superconductor structure is reported by a recent experiment [Q. L. He textit{et al.}, Science 357, 294-299 (2017)], which suggests the existence of the chir
al Majorana fermion modes. However, such half quantized conductance plateau may also originates from a disorder-induced metallic phase. To identify the exact mechanism, we study the transport properties of such a system in the presence of strong disorders. Our results show that the local current density distributions of these two mechanisms are different. In particular, the current noises measurement can be used to distinguish them without any further fabrication of current experimental setup.
Thermodynamic measurements of magnetic fluxes and I-V characteristics in SQUIDs offer promising paths to the characterization of topological superconducting phases. We consider the problem of macroscopic quantum tunneling in an rf-SQUID in a topologi
cal superconducting phase. We show that the topological order shifts the tunneling rates and quantum levels, both in the parity conserving and fluctuating cases. The latter case is argued to actually enhance the signatures in the slowly fluctuating limit, which is expected to take place in the quantum regime of the circuit. In view of recent advances, we also discuss how our results affect a $pi$-junction loop.
