* Manipulating and controlling Majoranas for robust quantum computation (Torsten Karzig)

  Challenges for topological quantum computation with Majoranas:
  
	1.  Experimental realizations
  	2.  Non-adiabatic effects
    3.  Missing gates (Majorana exchange gates alone are not universal)
    4.  Quasi particle poisoning
    
  Smart control can help with 2. and 3.
