Non-Hermitian Aubry-André model with Power-Law Hopping

Abstract

We study a non-Hermitian AA model with long-range hopping, $1/r^a$, and different choices of quasiperiodic parameters $\beta$ to be a member of the metallic mean family. We find that when the power-law exponent is in the $a<1$ regime, the system displays a delocalized-to-multifractal (DM) edge in its eigenstate spectrum. For the $a>1$ case, a delocalized-to-localized (DL) edge exists, also called the mobility edge. While a striking feature of the Hermitian AA model with long-range hopping is that the fraction of delocalized states can be obtained from a general sequence manifesting a mathematical feature of the metallic mean family, we find that the DM or DL edge for the non-Hermitian cases is independent of the mathematical feature of the metallic mean family. To understand this difference, we consider a specific case of the non-Hermitian long-range AA model with $a=2$, for which we can apply the Sarnak method to analytically derive its localization transition points and the exact expression of the DL edge. Our analytical result clearly demonstrates that the mobility edge is independent of the quasi-periodic parameter $\beta$, which confirms our numerical result. Finally, an optical setup is proposed to realize the non-Hermitian long-range AA model.
