• Abstract: Topological qubits composed of unpaired Majorana zero-modes are under intense experimental and theoretical scrutiny in efforts to realize practical quantum computation schemes. In this work, we show the minimum four \textit{unpaired} Majorana zero-modes required for a topological qubit according to braiding schemes and control of entanglement for gate operations are inherent to multiplicative topological phases, which realize symmetry-protected tensor products -- and maximally-entangled Bell states -- of unpaired Majorana zero-modes known as multiplicative Majorana zero-modes. We introduce multiplicative Majorana zero-modes as topologically-protected boundary states of both one and two-dimensional multiplicative topological phases, using methods reliant on multiplicative topology to construct relevant Hamiltonians from the Kitaev chain model. We furthermore characterize topology in the bulk and on the boundary with established methods while also introducing techniques to overcome challenges in characterizing multiplicative topology. In the process, we explore the potential of these multiplicative topological phases for an alternative to braiding-based topological quantum computation schemes, in which gate operations are performed through topological phase transitions.

  Topologically ordered quantum matter exhibits intriguing long-range patterns of entanglement, which reveal themselves in subsystem entropies. We propose a protocol based on local adiabatic deformations of the Hamiltonian which extracts the universal features of long-range entanglement.

  We consider fixed-point models for topological phases of matter formulated as discrete path integrals in the language of tensor networks. All of the established ansatzes for fixed-point models imply the existence of a gapped boundary as well as a commuting-projector Hamiltonian. We present a more general fixed-point ansatz not affected by the aforementioned restrictions.

  We study the manipulation of Majorana zero modes in a thin disk made from a $p$-wave superconductor. We analyze the second-order topological corner modes that arise when an in-plane magnetic field is applied. We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.
