Abstract: Rhombohedral graphene multilayers exhbits a plethora of electronic phases, including quarter metals and chiral superconductors. In addition it can also exhibit two distinct rhombohedral stacking orders. These are all types of spontaneous symmetry breaking phenomena, either in the electronic or structural domains, that naturally lead to domain wall formation. We review the evidence of these domain walls and how they respond to transport and external forces. We also explore the implication of domain walls for the emergence of protected boundary modes such as chiral Majoranas, and how these could be detected experimentally.
