Knot topology of exceptional point and non-Hermitian no-go theorem

Haiping Hu, Shikang Sun, Shu Chen

Exceptional points (EPs) are peculiar band singularities and play a vital role in a rich array of unusual optical phenomena and non-Hermitian band theory. In this paper, we provide…

Information constraint in open quantum systems

Chun-Hui Liu, Shu Chen

We propose an effect called information constraint which is characterized by the existence of different decay rates of signal strengths propagating along opposite directions. It is…

Helical damping and anomalous critical non-Hermitian skin effect

Chun-Hui Liu, Kai Zhang, Zhesen Yang +1

Non-Hermitian skin effect and critical skin effect are unique features of non-Hermitian systems. In this Letter, we study an open system with its dynamics of single-particle correl…

Interplay of non-Hermitian skin effects and Anderson localization in non-reciprocal quasiperiodic lattices

Hui Jiang, Li-Jun Lang, Chao Yang +2

Non-Hermiticity from non-reciprocal hoppings has been shown recently to demonstrate the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) under open boundary conditions (OBCs). Here we study the in…

Topological classification of non-Hermitian systems with reflection symmetry

Chun-Hui Liu, Hui Jiang, Shu Chen

We classify topological phases of non-Hermitian systems in the Altland-Zirnbauer classes with an additional reflection symmetry in all dimensions. By mapping the non-Hermitian syst…
