In this paper, we study the spin Nernst effect of magnons in the nonlinear response regime.
We derive the formula for the nonlinear magnon spin Nernst current by solving the …

Dynamical evolution in a one-dimensional incommensurate lattice with symmetry

Z Xu, S Chen - Physical Review A, 2021 - APS
We investigate the dynamical evolution of a parity-time (PT) symmetric extension of the
Aubry-André (AA) model, which exhibits the coincidence of a localization-delocalization …

Strain-induced pseudo magnetic field in the lattice

J Sun, T Liu, Y Du, H Guo - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
We investigate the effects of nonuniform uniaxial strain and triaxial strain on the α-T 3 lattice.
The analytical expressions of the pseudo-Landau levels (pLLs) are derived based on low …

Zero-Frequency Chiral Magnonic Edge States Protected by Nonequilibrium Topology

PM Gunnink, JS Harms, RA Duine, A Mook - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Topological bosonic excitations must, in contrast to their fermionic counterparts, appear at
finite energies. This is a key challenge for magnons, as it prevents straightforward excitation …

Analytic solution to pseudo-Landau levels in strongly bent graphene nanoribbons

T Liu, HZ Lu - Physical Review Research, 2022 - APS
Nonuniform elastic strain is known to induce pseudo-Landau levels in Dirac materials. But
these pseudo-Landau levels are hardly resolvable in an analytic fashion when the strain is …

Ubiquity of zeros of the Loschmidt amplitude for mixed states in different physical processes and its implication

XY Hou, QC Gao, H Guo, Y He, T Liu, CC Chien - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
The Loschmidt amplitude of the purified states of mixed-state density matrices is shown to
have zeros when the system undergoes a quasistatic, quench, or Uhlmann process. While …

Dirac surface states in magnonic analogs of topological crystalline insulators

H Kondo, Y Akagi - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We propose magnonic analogs of topological crystalline insulators which possess Dirac
surface states protected by the combined symmetry of time reversal and half translation …
