In ordinary, non-relativistic, quantum physics, time enters only as a parameter and not as an observable: a state of a physical system is specified at a given time and then evolved according to the prescribed dynamics. While the state can,…

The concept of non-Hermiticity has expanded the understanding of band topology leading to the emergence of counter-intuitive phenomena. One example is the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE), which involves the concentration of eigenstates at…

The non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) is a novel localization phenomenon in certain non-Hermitian systems with gain and/or loss. Most of previous works study the non-Hermitian skin effect in periodic systems. However, electromagnetic waves…

Non-Hermitian systems have attracted considerable interest in recent years owing to their unique topological properties that are absent in Hermitian systems. While such properties have been thoroughly characterized in free fermion models,…
