Bulk-boundary correspondence in a non-Hermitian system in one dimension with chiral inversion symmetry

L Jin, Z Song - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
Asymmetric coupling amplitudes effectively create an imaginary gauge field, which induces
a non-Hermitian Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect. Nonzero imaginary magnetic flux invalidates …

High-order spectral singularity

HS Xu, LC Xie, L Jin - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
Exceptional point and spectral singularity are two types of singularity that are unique to non-
Hermitian systems. Here, we report the high-order spectral singularity as a high-order pole …

Topological waveguiding near an exceptional point: defect-immune, slow-light, and loss-immune propagation

SA Hassani Gangaraj, F Monticone - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
Electromagnetic waves propagating in conventional wave-guiding structures are reflected
by discontinuities and decay in lossy regions. In this Letter, we drastically modify this typical …
