Dissipation-induced nonlocal phase-coherent transport in a topological superconductor

RESUMO

Nonlocal phase-coherent transport via Majorana bound states, so-called teleportation, requires Coulomb blockade to suppress local Andreev reflection. We show that dissipation can replace the need for Coulomb blockade. We study a Kitaev chain coupled to a Markovian bath and identify a regime where the magnitude of nonlocal conductance contribution reach the local one. In this regime, the lowest-energy subspace is maximally mixed, reminiscent of a directly-grounded nontrivial topological superconductor. Phase coherence is confirmed by Aharonov-Bohm oscillations. Our results establish dissipation as a tool for controlling quantum teleportation in Majorana systems.
