Schematics for controllable hybridization of MT protected MZMs using tilted magnetic fields. (a) The magnetic field is not parallel to the 110 or 110 mirror planes and breaks the symmetry that protects the MZMs. (b) The magnetic field is parallel to the 110 or 110 mirror planes and preserves the symmetry that protects the MZMs. Left: Schematics for the tilted magnetic field and the mirror planes. Middle: Schematics for the tilted vortex line. Right: Schematics for the local density of states showing the nonexistence or existence of the MZMs.
