We propose an one-dimensional generalized Aubry-Andr{\'e}-Harper (AAH) model with off-diagonal hopping and staggered on-site potential. We find that the localization transitions could be multiple reentrant with the increasing of staggered…
We introduce a two-dimensional generalisation of the quasiperiodic Aubry-Andr\'e model. Even though this model exhibits the same duality relation as the one-dimensional version, its localisation properties are found to be substantially more…
Multifractal states offer a "third way" for quantum matter, neither fully localized nor ergodic, exhibiting singular continuous spectra, self-similar wavefunctions, and transport and entanglement scaling exponents intermediate between…
Topological quantum optical states in one-dimensional (1D) quasiperiodic cold atomic chains are studied in this work. We propose that by introducing incommensurate modulations on the interatomic distances of 1D periodic atomic chains, the…

We consider a simple model of quantum disorder in two dimensions, characterized by a long-range site-to-site hopping. The system undergoes a metal-insulator transition -- its eigenfunctions change from being extended to being localized. We…

In this study, we investigate the localization transition and quantum criticality {in the ground state of the} disordered Aubry-Andr\'{e}-Harper (AAH) model, where a quasiperiodic potential is hybridized with a disordered potential. In the…
We construct a tight-binding model that hosts both a quasi-periodic nature and marcoscopically-dengenerate zero-energy modes. The model can be regarded as a counterpart of the Aubry-Andr\'{e}-Harper (AAH) model, which is a paradigmatic…
Topological edge states are known to emerge in certain quasicrystals. We investigate a topological quasicrystal in the presence of nonlinearity by generalizing the Toda lattice to include modulated periodic hoppings, where the period is…
Topological phases have recently witnessed a rapid progress in non-Hermitian systems. Here we study a one-dimensional non-Hermitian Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model with imaginary periodic or quasiperiodic modulations. We demonstrate that the…
Compared to periodic systems, quasicrystals without translational invariance exhibit unexpected localization properties. The extended-localized transition in quasicrystals has been observed in both quantum and classical wave systems.…
The Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper (AAH) model with a self-dual symmetry plays an important role in studying the Anderson localization. Here we find a self-dual symmetry determining the quantum phase transition between extended and localized states…
