Open quantum systems governed by non-Hermitian effective Hamiltonians exhibit unique phenomena, such as the non-Hermitian skin effect, where eigenstates localize at system boundaries. We investigate this effect in a Rashba nanowire coupled…
We review theoretical investigations on the origin of the orbital selective phase where localized and itinerant electrons coexist in the d shell at intermediate strength of the on-site Coulomb interactions between electrons. In particular,…

We show that the evolution of two-component particles governed by a two-dimensional spin-orbit lattice Hamiltonian can reveal transitions between topological phases. A kink in the mean width of the particle distribution signals the closing…

Persistent spin textures are highly desirable for applications in spintronics as they may allow for long carrier spin lifetimes. However, they are also rare as only four point groups can host such textures, and even for these four groups,…
Growth of ice on surfaces poses a challenge for both organisms and for devices that come into contact with liquids below the freezing point. Resistance of some organisms to ice formation and growth, either in subtidal environments (e.g.…

We study a system where the two edges of a non-Hermitian lattice with asymmetric nearest-neighbor hopping are connected with two Hermitian lattices with symmetric nearest-neighbor hopping. In the absence of those Hermitian lattices, the…
Carrying information using generation and detection of the orbital current, instead of the spin current, is an emerging field of research, where the orbital Hall effect (OHE) is an important ingredient. Here, we propose a new mechanism of…
