Non-Hermiticity can vary the topology of system, induce topological phase transition, and even invalidate the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence. Here, we show the introducing of non-Hermiticity without affecting the topological…
We construct two-band topological semimetals in four dimensions using the unstable homotopy of maps from the three-torus $T^3$ (Brillouin zone of a 3D crystal) to the two-sphere $S^2$. Dubbed ``Hopf semimetals'', these gapless phases…
