Majorana 1 Claims vs. Evidence: A Dataflow Framework, Not Verified Qubit Math — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Microsoft's Majorana 1 chip claims topological qubit hardware using Majorana zero modes, but the search results are video titles/abstracts with no peer-reviewed equations or measured error rates; the only concrete mathematical artifact is a dataflow framework (Tierkreis) for hybrid quantum-classical computing. MATH: No explicit equations, constants, or ratios are provided in the search results. The Tierkreis paper (arXiv:2211.02350v1) describes a higher-order dataflow graph — mathematically a directed acyclic graph (DAG) with typed ports and compositional morphisms (category-theoretic structure), but no specific numerical constants. Majorana zero modes, if realized, obey non-Abelian braiding statistics — the braid group B_n acts on a 2^(n/2)-dimensional Hilbert space (for n Majoranas), with the Fibonacci anyon model giving golden-ratio fusion rules (τ × τ = 1 + τ, dimension φ = (1+√5)/2 ≈ 1.618). However, the search results do not confirm which anyon model Microsoft uses. CO Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK. Part of the E8 Intelligence Research series.
