Summary: Theory of tunneling spectroscopy of
superconducting topological insulators
1. Zero-bias conductance peak is possibleeven in full-gap topological 3d superconductors, differently from the case of BW states.
2. This originates from the structural transition of energy dispersion of ABS.

Summary: Nano wire hosting Majorana fermion
1. Majorana fermion should be always hosting odd-frequency pairing.
2. Anomalous proximity effect, anomalous charge transport are expected similar to spin-triplet p-wave superconductor junctions.
3. Nano wire is an idealistic system to study anomalous proximity effect expected for spin-triplet px-wave
superconductor.

3D TSCs show a robust sin2jprotected by the symmetry
cf. A spin-dependent tunneling is possible in Sr2RuO4 since the electronic state has higher angular momentum in lower point group symmetry . (Asano)
