Supersymmetry provides a natural playground for the construction of dynamically constrained lattice fermion models. We here illustrate how supersymmetry can be used to construct a fermionic equivalent of the PXP model with an adjustable…
Quantum revival is described as the time-periodic reconstruction of a wave packet initially localized in space and time. This effect is expected in finite-size systems which exhibits commensurable discrete spectrum such as the infinite…
Wave packets in a system governed by a Hamiltonian with a generic nonlinear spectrum typically exhibit both full and fractional revivals. It is shown that the latter can be eliminated by inducing suitable geometric phases in the states, by…
In this work we first discuss systematically three general approaches to construct a non-Hermitian flat band, defined by its dispersionless real part. They resort to, respectively, spontaneous restoration of non-Hermitian particle-hole…

We study a quasi-one-dimensional non-reciprocal Hermitian hourglass photonic lattice that can accomplish multiple functions. Under the effect of non-reciprocal coupling, this lattice can produce an energy isolation effect, two kinds of flat…
Wave motion is fundamentally constrained by the dispersion properties of the medium, often making it challenging -- or even impossible -- to guide wave packets along desired trajectories, particularly when wave inversion is required. The…
