The topology of typical Chern insulators is rooted in the periodicity of the system along two directions of real-space. In this article, we depart from this standard concept and demonstrate that a generic non-Hermitian photonic waveguide…
Thouless pumping provides one of the simplest manifestations of topology in quantum systems, and has attracted a lot of recent interest, both theoretically and experimentally. Since the seminal works by Thouless and Niu in 1983 and 1984, it…

Robust quantization of particle transport, as in a Thouless pump, is a hallmark of topological quantum systems with externally controlled system parameters. Here we instead propose and analyze a Thouless pump, for fermions in a…
We investigate non-Hermitian skin modes in laser arrays with spatially localized excitation. Intriguingly, we observe an unusual threshold behavior when selectively pumping either the head or the tail of these modes: both cases exhibit the…
We investigate adiabatic charge pumping in disordered system in one dimension with open and closed boundary conditions. In contrast to the Thouless charge pumping, the system has no gap even though all the states are localized, i.e., strong…
Symmetry and its representation play a crucial role in topological phases, including both Hermitian and non-Hermitian paradigms. In the presence of synthetic gauge field, spatial symmetries should be projectively represented, which can…
We study the adiabatic topological charge pumping driven by interlayer sliding in the moir\'{e} superlattices. We show that, when we slide a single layer of the twisted bilayer system relatively to the other, a moir\'{e} pattern flow and a…
We consider the process of pumping charge through an open quantum system, motivated by the example of a quantum dot with strong repulsive or attractive electron-electron interaction. Using the geometric formulation of adiabatic nonunitary…
In Hermitean quantum mechanics, extended current-carrying states are distinguished from localized ones by their non-zero Chern number. We generalize the notion of Chern number to non-Hermitean localization problems such as tiltedflux lines…
Non-Hermitian physics has added new ingredients to topological physics, leading to the rising frontier of non-Hermitian topological phases. In this study, we investigate Chern insulator phases emerging from non-Hermitian kagome models with…
This paper is concerned with the physics of parametrized gapped quantum many-body systems, which can be viewed as a generalization of conventional topological phases of matter. In such systems, rather than considering a single Hamiltonian,…
Adiabatic quantum pumping in one-dimensional lattices is extended by adding a tilted potential to probe better topologically nontrivial bands. This extension leads to almost perfectly quantized pumping for an arbitrary initial state…
Non-Bloch topological invariants preserve the bulk-boundary correspondence in non-Hermitian topological systems, and are a key concept in the contemporary study of non-Hermitian topology. Here we report the dynamic detection of non-Bloch…

Nonlinear interaction enables topological phenomena impossible in linear systems. A paradigm is nonlinear Thouless pump, where the transport of solitons can be topologically quantized even when band occupation is nonuniform. Such nonlinear…
We develop the topological band theory for systems described by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, whose energy spectra are generally complex. After generalizing the notion of gapped band structures to the non-Hermitian case, we classify "gapped"…
