  1. Most experimental claims of Majorana bound states rest on the observation of a persistent zero bias peak (ZBP) in tunneling spectra.  In our paper, we provide comprehensive evidence that the ZBPs observed in the experiments with semiconductor nanowires fully coated with a superconducting shell are not of Majorana origin. Instead, our theory  demonstrates that ZBPs can be explained in terms of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states (a special type of Andreev bound state) that originate in the tunneling region owing to the competition between electron correlations and superconductivity.

  2. In this review, we discuss the main properties of Andreev  and Majorana bound states, state-of-the-art techniques for their detection and theoretical progress beyond minimal models, including different types of robust zero modes that may emerge without a band-topological transition.
