Generalized Aubry-André self-duality and mobility edges in non-Hermitian quasiperiodic lattices

T Liu, H Guo, Y Pu, S Longhi - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We demonstrate the existence of generalized Aubry-André self-duality in a class of non-
Hermitian quasiperiodic lattices with complex potentials. From the self-duality relations, the …

Phase transitions in a non-Hermitian Aubry-André-Harper model

Robust localized zero-energy modes from locally embedded -symmetric defects

F Mostafavi, C Yuce, OS Maganã-Loaiza… - Physical Review …, 2020 - APS
We demonstrate the creation of robust localized zero-energy states that are induced into
topologically trivial systems by the insertion of a PT-symmetric defect with local gain and …

Anomalous transport regime in a non-Hermitian Anderson-localized hybrid system

H Sahoo, R Vijay, S Mujumdar - Physical Review Research, 2022 - APS
In a disordered environment, the average transmission of a propagating wave falls with
increasing disorder. Beyond a crossover, transport is arrested because the wave is trapped …

Phase transitions of wave packet dynamics in disordered non-Hermitian systems

H Spring, V Könye, FA Gerritsma, IC Fulga… - SciPost Physics, 2024 - scipost.org
Disorder can localize the eigenstates of one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems, leading to
an Anderson transition with a critical exponent of 1. We show that, due to the lack of energy …

[HTML][HTML] Anderson localized transport in non-Hermitian spoof surface plasmon polariton structures

H Sahoo, R Vijay, S Mujumdar - AIP Advances, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
Anderson localization, a fundamental wave phenomenon, is a challenging problem in
quasiparticle transport, exacerbated in the presence of dissipation. Of late, however, a few …

The funneling effect in a non-Hermitian Anderson Model

Z Turker, C Yuce - Physica Scripta, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
The topological funneling effect, ie, the motion of an arbitrary excitation to a focal point of the
lattice no matter where the lattice is excited, is a dynamical effect due to the non-Hermitian …
