Two topics of high current interest in the field of unconventional superconductivity are noncentrosymmetric superconductors and multiband superconductivity. Half-Heusler superconductors such as YPtBi exemplify both. In this paper, we study bulk and surface states in nodal superconducting phases of the half-Heusler compounds, belonging to the A(1) (s + p-like) and T2 (k(z)k(x) + ik(z)k(y) -like) irreducible representations of the point group. These two phases preserve and break time-reversal symmetry, respectively. For theA(1) case, we find that flat surface bands persist in the multiband system. In addition, the system has dispersive surface bands with zero-energy crossings forming Fermi arcs, which are protected by mirror symmetries. For the T-2 case, there is an interesting coexistence of point and line nodes, known from the single-band case, with Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces (two-dimensional nodes). There are no flat-band surface states, as expected, but dispersive surface bands with Fermi arcs exist. If these arcs do not lie in high-symmetry planes, they are split by the antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling so that their number is doubled compared to the inversion-symmetric case.
