TL;DR
This paper introduces a simple model of a topologically insulating quantum wire with an isolated edge mode, demonstrating how edge modes can be used for quantum teleportation of electron spin states.
Contribution
It presents a new model of a topological insulator quantum wire with edge modes capable of forming entangled states for quantum information processing.

Edge modes form Bell entangled states when wires are brought into proximity
The model enables teleportation of electron spin states between wires
Edge modes are isolated and suitable for quantum communication
Abstract
We find a simple model of an insulating state of a quantum wire which has a single isolated edge mode. We argue that, when brought to proximity, the edge modes on independent wires naturally form Bell entangled states which could be used for elementary quantum processes such as teleportation. We give an example of an algorithm which teleports the spin state of an electron from one quantum wire to another.
