A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
