Quantized Transport of Gap Solitons in the Harper-Hofstadter Model
Oliver Ashfield, Henry Davenport, Tom Sheppard +6
We investigate the dynamics of gap solitons found in the Harper-Hofstadter model with an additional cubic nonlinearity, such as that describing weakly-interacting cold atoms or a K…

Temporal Localisation of Waves from Imaginary Line-Gap Topology
Carlos Camacho, Tom Sheppard, Joshua Feis +4
For non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, gain, loss, and non-reciprocity produce complex eigenvalues which, in turn, facilitate different kinds of topological phases. One example is the ima…
