Why such new topological phases can be found ?
The key is symmetry
Time-reversal symmetry (TRS)
Kramers theorem
• No back scattering
• topologically stable
26
Particle-hole symmetry (PHS)
• Spectrum is symmetric between E and –E
• Quasiparticles can be their own antiparticles
Majorana condition

[Wilczek , Nature
PH symmetry also provides topological stability

But spinless systems are often needed to realized MFs.

Why Majorana Fermions favor spinless SCs ?
For spinless SCs, we have the Majorana condition (self-antiparticle
property) naturally.
However, the spin degrees of freedoms obscure the Majorana
condition
Nitta, JPSJ talk
Majorana condition

38
Moreover, spinful SCs support MFs in pairs because of the spin
degeneracy.
They can be considered as Dirac fermions as well as MFs
The Dirac fermions are easily gapped away by the Dirac mass
term
No topologically stable MFs
39
Question
Is it possible to realize Majorana fermions in spinful
SCs ?
Key observation
If there is an additional symmetry such as time-reversal
symmetry, Majorana fermions can be realized in spinful SCs

Thus, they naturally can be considered as two independent
particles, not as a single Dirac fermion.
Actually, the Dirac mass term is forbidden by the time-reversal
symmetry.

However, there is an important difference between TCIs and TCSCs

The problem is how the particle-hole symmetry is realized in the
mirror subsectors.

Summary (1)
1. In general, spinful SCs support a pair of Majorana
fermions that can be identified with a single Dirac fermion.
2. With symmetry, unconventinal spinful SCs can host
intrinsic Majorana fermions
In particular, a pair of Majorana zero modes in a vortex
can be stable by additional SCs
Is it possible to generalize topological periodic table
with additional symmetry ?

Summary
• The idea of topological phase has been established now with
many experimental supports.
• While time-reversal invariance and particle-hole symmetry
has been used to extend topological phase, other
symmetries specific to material structures are also useful to
have new topological phases.
• Many undiscovered topological materials can be expected by
combining various symmetries in nature.
