Majorana phase-gate based on the geometric phase

We study dynamics of a single qubit encoded in two pairs of Majorana modes, whereby each pair is hosted on a trijunction described by the Kitaev model extended by many-body interactions. We demonstrated that the challenging phase-gate may be efficiently implemented via braiding of partially overlapping modes. Although such qubit acquires both geometric and dynamical phases during the braiding protocol, the latter phase may be eliminated if the Majorana modes are hosted by systems with appropriate particle-hole symmetry.
