Abstract

In recent years, the realization of quantum computation is a compelling research direction. To realize an error-tolerate quantum computer, topological quantum computation is considered as the most promising direction. Plenty of scholars have proved that non-abelian particles may play an important role on it. As a matter of fact, among particles obey non-abelian statistics, Majorana fermions is a typical example. On this basis, this study aims at introducing the development of Majorana-based quantum computation. To be specific, it will contain the conceptual framework of topological computation and introduce some recent research about Majorana-based quantum computation including the principles, configurations as well as the state-of-art analysis results. In addition, the current limitations for these studies will be demonstrated accordingly. Moreover, based on the summary the development of this field in recent years, this research will provide reference direction for future researchers. Overall, these results shed light on guiding further exploration of quantum computers.
