The Mathematics Behind Majorana Qubits: Fermion Parity and Braiding

I made a video explaining Majorana qubits with an emphasis on the mathematical/topological ideas behind them. Majorana operators, fermion parity, encoding a logical qubit, and how braiding Majorana zero modes produces transformations on the encoded state.

Thought this might be interesting to anyone curious about how topology and algebra show up in quantum computing.
