We develop a scaling theory for the finite-size critical behavior of the microcanonical entropy (density of states) of a system with a critically-divergent heat capacity. The link between the microcanonical entropy and the canonical energy…

We study a non-Hermitian Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model with both nonreciprocal hoppings and complex quasiperiodical potentials, which is a typical non-Hermitian quasicrystal. We introduce boundary-dependent self-dualities in this model and…

Critical phase transitions contain a variety of deep and universal physics, and are intimately tied to thermodynamic quantities through scaling relations. Yet, these notions are challenged in the context of non-Hermiticity, where spatial or…

The Anderson transition on random graphs draws interest through its resemblance to the many-body localization (MBL) transition with similarly debated properties. In this Letter, we construct a unitary Anderson model on Small-World graphs to…

This work uncovers a new class of criticality where eigenenergies and eigenstates of non-Hermitian lattice systems jump discontinuously across a critical point in the thermodynamic limit, unlike established Hermitian and non-Hermitian…

Boundary conditions can have dramatic impact in non-Hermitian systems, as exemplified by the non-Hermitian skin effect. Focusing on one-dimensional non-Hermitian quasiperioidic lattices, we show that the interplay of quasiperiodicity and…

In this paper, the influence of the quasidisorder on a two-dimensional system is studied. We find that there exists a topological phase transition accompanied by a transverse Anderson localization. The topological properties are…

Quasiperiodic systems serve as fertile ground for studying localisation, due to their propensity already in one dimension to exhibit rich phase diagrams with mobility edges. The deterministic and strongly-correlated nature of the…
