Title: Stabilization and control of Majorana bound states with elongated skyrmions,
Abstract: We show that elongated magnetic skyrmions can host Majorana bound states in a
proximity-coupled two-dimensional electron gas sandwiched between a chiral
magnet and an $s$-wave superconductor. Our proposal requires stable skyrmions
with unit topological charge, which can be realized in a wide range of
multilayer magnets, and allows quantum information transfer by using standard
methods in spintronics via skyrmion motion. We also show how braiding
operations can be realized in our proposal.
