Autoregressive Projective Quantum Monte Carlo: From a Hermitian to a Non-Hermitian Perspective

Lavoisier Wah, Remmy Zen, Flore K. Kunst

Accurately determining the ground-state properties of quantum many-body systems remains a central challenge. In this work, we introduce an autoregressive projective quantum Monte C…

Bridging Frustration and Non-Hermiticity via COMPASS: An Adaptive Biorthogonal Neural Quantum State Framework

Lavoisier Wah, Flore K. Kunst, Mohamed Hibat-Allah

In this work, we introduce a complementary optimization method for progressive and adaptive state search (COMPASS) based on biorthogonal adaptive recurrent neural quantum states. O…

Atom-Photon Bound States in Fractal Photonic Lattices: Localization Length and Anomalous Diffusion

Florian Bönsel, Flore K. Kunst, Federico Roccati

We study atom-photon bound states seeded by two-level emitters coupled to self-similar photonic lattices. By expressing the photonic Green's function through the heat kernel, we sh…

Birefringent Curvature Control of Surface Plasmons and Collective Emission

Florian Bönsel, Flore K. Kunst

We present a generic wave equation for surface plasmon polaritons on any macroscopically curved metal-dielectric interface, with isotropic and anisotropic geometric potentials line…

Fibonacci Waveguide Quantum Electrodynamics

Florian Bönsel, Flore K. Kunst, Federico Roccati

Waveguide quantum electrodynamics (QED) provides a powerful framework for engineering quantum interactions, traditionally relying on periodic photonic arrays with continuous energy…

Many-Body Neural Network Wavefunction for a Non-Hermitian Ising Chain

Lavoisier Wah, Remmy Zen, Flore K. Kunst

Non-Hermitian (NH) quantum systems have emerged as a powerful framework for describing open quantum systems, non-equilibrium dynamics, and engineered quantum optical materials. How…

The non-Hermitian skin effect: A perspective

Julius T. Gohsrich, Ayan Banerjee, Flore K. Kunst

The non-Hermitian (NH) skin effect is a truly NH feature, which manifests itself as an accumulation of states, known as skin states, on the boundaries of a system. In this perspect…

Spectral Riemann Sheet Topology of Gapped Non-Hermitian Systems

Anton Montag, Alexander Felski, Flore K. Kunst

We show topological configurations of the complex-valued spectra in gapped non-Hermitian systems. These arise when the distinctive EPs in the energy Riemann sheets of such models a…

Essential implications of similarities in non-Hermitian systems

Anton Montag, Flore K. Kunst

In this paper, we show that three different generalized similarities enclose all unitary and anti-unitary symmetries that induce exceptional points in lower-dimensional non-Hermiti…

Bound states and photon emission in non-Hermitian nanophotonics

Zongping Gong, Miguel Bello, Daniel Malz +1

We establish a general framework for studying the bound states and the photon-emission dynamics of quantum emitters coupled to structured nanophotonic lattices with engineered diss…

Anomalous Behaviors of Quantum Emitters in Non-Hermitian Baths

Zongping Gong, Miguel Bello, Daniel Malz +1

Both non-Hermitian systems and the behaviour of emitters coupled to structured baths have been studied intensely in recent years. Here we study the interplay of these paradigmatic…

Symmetry-protected exceptional and nodal points in non-Hermitian systems

Sharareh Sayyad, Marcus Stalhammar, Lukas Rodland +1

One of the unique features of non-Hermitian~(NH) systems is the appearance of non-Hermitian degeneracies known as exceptional points~(EPs). The extensively studied defective EPs oc…

Realizing exceptional points of any order in the presence of symmetry

Sharareh Sayyad, Flore K. Kunst

Exceptional points~(EPs) appear as degeneracies in the spectrum of non-Hermitian matrices at which the eigenvectors coalesce. In general, an EP of order may find room to emerge…
