Fermion doubling theorems in two-dimensional non-Hermitian systems for Fermi points and exceptional points
The fermion doubling theorem plays a pivotal role in Hermitian topological materials. It
states, for example, that Weyl points must come in pairs in three-dimensional semimetals …

Flat bands in lattices with non-Hermitian coupling
We study non-Hermitian photonic lattices that exhibit competition between conservative and
non-Hermitian (gain/loss) couplings. A bipartite sublattice symmetry enforces the existence …

High-sensitivity real-splitting anti-PT-symmetric microscale optical gyroscope
Optical gyroscopes measure the angular velocity using the Sagnac effect. However, the
resonance splitting due to the Sagnac effect is directly proportional to the linear dimensions …
