A review on non-Hermitian skin effect

X Zhang, T Zhang, MH Lu, YF Chen - Advances in Physics: X, 2022 - Taylor & Francis
The past decades have witnessed the flourishing of non-Hermitian physics in non-
conservative systems, leading to unprecedented phenomena of unidirectional invisibility …

Non-hermitian physics

Y Ashida, Z Gong, M Ueda - Advances in Physics, 2020 - Taylor & Francis

quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …

Exceptional topology of non-Hermitian systems

EJ Bergholtz, JC Budich, FK Kunst - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2021 - APS
The current understanding of the role of topology in non-Hermitian (NH) systems and its far-
reaching physical consequences observable in a range of dissipative settings are reviewed …

Topological origin of non-Hermitian skin effects

N Okuma, K Kawabata, K Shiozaki, M Sato - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
A unique feature of non-Hermitian systems is the skin effect, which is the extreme sensitivity
to the boundary conditions. Here, we reveal that the skin effect originates from intrinsic non …

Correspondence between winding numbers and skin modes in non-Hermitian systems

K Zhang, Z Yang, C Fang - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We establish exact relations between the winding of “energy”(eigenvalue of Hamiltonian) on
the complex plane as momentum traverses the Brillouin zone with periodic boundary …

Non-Bloch band theory of non-Hermitian systems

K Yokomizo, S Murakami - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
In spatially periodic Hermitian systems, such as electronic systems in crystals, the band
structure is described by the band theory in terms of the Bloch wave functions, which …

Non-Hermitian boundary modes and topology

DS Borgnia, AJ Kruchkov, RJ Slager - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
We consider conditions for the existence of boundary modes in non-Hermitian systems with
edges of arbitrary codimension. Through a universal formulation of formation criteria for …

Non-Hermitian skin effect and chiral damping in open quantum systems

F Song, S Yao, Z Wang - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
One of the unique features of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians is the non-Hermitian skin effect,
namely, that the eigenstates are exponentially localized at the boundary of the system. For …

Non-Hermitian bulk-boundary correspondence and auxiliary generalized Brillouin zone theory

Z Yang, K Zhang, C Fang, J Hu - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We provide a systematic and self-consistent method to calculate the generalized Brillouin
zone (GBZ) analytically in one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems, which helps us to …

Non-Hermitian topological invariants in real space

F Song, S Yao, Z Wang - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
The topology of non-Hermitian systems is drastically shaped by the non-Hermitian skin
effect, which leads to the generalized bulk-boundary correspondence and non-Bloch band …
