Self-healing of non-Hermitian topological skin modes

S Longhi - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
A unique feature of non-Hermitian (NH) systems is the NH skin effect, ie, the edge
localization of an extensive number of bulk-band eigenstates in a lattice with open or semi …

Non-Hermitian skin effect and self-acceleration

S Longhi - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
Non-Hermitian systems exhibit nontrivial band topology and a strong sensitivity of the
energy spectrum on the boundary conditions. Remarkably, a macroscopic number of bulk …

Scaling rule for the critical non-Hermitian skin effect

K Yokomizo, S Murakami - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
Non-Hermitian systems show a non-Hermitian skin effect, where the bulk states are
localized at a boundary of the systems with open boundary conditions. In this paper, we …

Non-Bloch bands in two-dimensional non-Hermitian systems

K Yokomizo, S Murakami - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
The non-Bloch band theory can describe energy bands in a one-dimensional (1D) non-
Hermitian system. On the other hand, whether the non-Bloch band theory can be extended …

Universal competitive spectral scaling from the critical non-Hermitian skin effect

F Qin, Y Ma, R Shen, CH Lee - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
Recently, it was discovered that certain non-Hermitian systems can exhibit qualitative
different properties at different system sizes, such as being gapless at small sizes and …

JJ Slim, CC Wanjura, M Brunelli, J Del Pino… - Nature, 2024 - nature.com
The fermionic Kitaev chain is a canonical model featuring topological Majorana zero modes.
We report the experimental realization of its bosonic analogue in a nano-optomechanical …

Quantum-squeezing-induced point-gap topology and skin effect

LL Wan, XY Lü - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
We theoretically predict the squeezing-induced point-gap topology together with a symmetry-
protected Z 2 “skin effect” in a one-dimensional (1D) quadratic-bosonic system. Protected by …

Non-Hermitian skin effect beyond the tight-binding models

S Longhi - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
The energy bands of non-Hermitian systems exhibit nontrivial topological features that arise
from the complex nature of the energy spectrum. Under periodic boundary conditions …
