- Abstract summary: We investigate the impact of introducing a local cavity within the center of a topological chain.
This cavity induces a scissor-like effect that bisects the chain, liberating Majorana zero modes (MZMs) within the bulk.
By leveraging the symmetry properties of fermion modes within a two-site cavity, we propose a novel method for generating MZM-polariton Schr"odinger cat states.

- Abstract: We investigate the impact of introducing a local cavity within the center of a topological chain, revealing profound effects on the system's quantum states. Notably, the cavity induces a scissor-like effect that bisects the chain, liberating Majorana zero modes (MZMs) within the bulk. Our results demonstrate that this setup enables the observation of non-trivial fusion rules and braiding -- key signatures of non-Abelian anyons -- facilitated by the spatially selective ultra-strong coupling of the cavity photon field. These MZM characteristics can be directly probed through fermionic parity readouts and photon Berry phases, respectively. Furthermore, by leveraging the symmetry properties of fermion modes within a two-site cavity, we propose a novel method for generating MZM-polariton Schr\"odinger cat states. Our findings present a significant advancement in the control of topological quantum systems, offering new avenues for both fundamental research and potential quantum computing applications.

In open systems, topological edge states quickly lose coherence and cannot be used in topological quantum computation and quantum memory.
