Abstract: Topological superconductors are expected to be potential platforms for topological quantum computation. In this talk, I will present our exact solutions for a BCS-type model of Dirac fermions in two and three dimensions. Based on the solutions, It will be shown rigorously that s-wave superconductors with spin-orbit interactions are equivalent to topological chiral p-wave ones.Intriguing applications to the emergence of Majorana fermions and a new type of FFLO ground state will also be addressed.
