Topological magnon insulators exhibit robust edge modes with chiral properties similar to quantum Hall edge states. However, due to their strong localization at the edges, interactions between these chiral edge magnons can be significant,…
We explore band structures of one-dimensional open systems described by periodic non-Hermitian operators, based on continuum models and tight-binding models. We show that imaginary scalar potentials do not open band gaps but instead lead to…
We study the one-dimensional tight-binding model with quasi-periodic disorders, where the quasi-period is tuned to be very large. It is found that this type of model with large quasi-periodic disorders can also support the mobility edges,…
In this work, we investigate the bound states in the continuum (BIC) of a one-dimensional spin-1 flat band system. It is found that, when the potential is sufficiently strong, there exists an effective attractive potential well surrounded…
We show, using direct numerical simulations with experimentally realizable boundary conditions, that wall modes in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in a rapidly rotating cylinder persist even very far from their linear onset. These nonlinear…

We determine the phase diagram of the Anderson tight-binding model on random regular graphs with Gaussian disorder and sufficiently large degree. In particular, we prove that if the degree is fixed and the number of vertices goes to…
We investigate theoretically the near-wall region in elastic turbulence of a dilute polymer solution in the limit of large Weissenberg number. As it was established experimentally, elastic turbulence possesses a boundary layer where the…
We show that two tight binding electrons that repel may form a bounded pair in two dimensions. The paired states form a band with energies that scale like the strength of the interaction potential. By applying an electric field we show that…
We consider two dimensional systems in which edge states coexist with a gapless bulk. Such systems may be constructed, for example, by coupling a gapped two dimensional state of matter that carries edge states to a gapless two dimensional…
We provide evidence that, alongside topologically protected edge states, two-dimensional Chern insulators also support localised bulk states deep in their valance and conduction bands. These states manifest when local potential gradients…
We study a class of periodic Schr\"odinger operators, which in distinguished cases can be proved to have linear band-crossings or "Dirac points". We then show that the introduction of an "edge", via adiabatic modulation of these periodic…
