Configurational-space separation and structure selection in three hard squares

Yuheng Yang, Meng Xiao, Duanduan Wan

Self-assembly of hard particles with diverse shapes gives rise to a rich variety of structures through excluded-volume constraints alone. Here we show that even a minimal system of…

Programming active-molecule dynamics via intramolecular nonreciprocity

Ye Zhang, Meng Xiao, Duanduan Wan

The dynamics of a self-propelled particle are typically hard-wired by its microscopic construction, limiting the range of behaviors accessible without redesigning the particle itse…

Braiding rule of boundary Majorana-like zero mode

Qiyun Ma, Hailong He, Meng Xiao +1

The study of topological states has become an important topic in both solid-state systems and artificial structures such as photonic crystals and phononic crystals. Among them, Maj…

Exceptional features in nonlinear Hermitian systems

Liang Fang, Kai Bai, Cheng Guo +3

Non-Hermitian systems and their topological singularities, such as exceptional points (EPs), lines, and surfaces, have recently attracted intense interest. The investigation of the…

Arbitrarily configurable nonlinear topological modes

Kai Bai, Jia-Zheng Li, Tian-Rui Liu +3

Topological modes (TMs) are typically localized at boundaries, interfaces and dislocations, and exponentially decay into the bulk of a large enough lattice. Recently, the non-Hermi…

Observation of Hybrid-Order Topological Pump in a Kekule-Textured Graphene Lattice

Tianzhi Xia, Yuzeng Li, Qicheng Zhang +3

Thouless charge pumping protocol provides an effective route for realizing topological particle transport. To date, the first-order and higher-order topological pumps, exhibiting t…

Braiding topology of symmetry-protected degeneracy points in non-Hermitian systems

Jia-Zheng Li, Kai Bai, Cheng Guo +4

Degeneracy points in non-Hermitian systems are of great interest. While a homotopic framework exists for understanding their behavior in the absence of symmetry, it does not apply…

Spin-dependent gain and loss in photonic quantum spin Hall systems

Tian-Rui Liu, Kai Bai, Jia-Zheng Li +3

Topological phases are greatly enriched by including non-Hermiticity. While most works focus on the topology of the eigenvalues and eigenstates, how topologically nontrivial non-He…
