Topological insulators possess protected boundary states which are robust against disorders and have immense implications in both fermionic and bosonic systems. Harnessing these topological effects in non-equilibrium scenarios is highly…

There are three key factors of a system of coupled oscillators that characterize the interaction among them: coupling (how to affect), delay (when to affect) and topology (whom to affect). For each of them, the existing work has mainly…
