majorana_operator

majorana_operator(operator)

Converts an operator into a MajoranaOperator.

This is a thin, type-agnostic wrapper around the SupportsMajoranaOperator protocol method, mirroring the free-function style of fermion_operator().

Parameters:

operator (SupportsMajoranaOperator) – the operator to convert, implementing SupportsMajoranaOperator.

Returns:

The operator converted into a MajoranaOperator.

Return type:

MajoranaOperator
