We investigate the flat-band properties and topological phase transitions in a non-Hermitian twisted bilayer $\alpha-T_3$ lattice. Here, non-Hermiticity is introduced via Hatano-Nelson-type asymmetric hopping, while an aligned hexagonal…
Non-Hermitian systems can host topological states with novel topological invariants and bulk-edge correspondences that are distinct from conventional Hermitian systems. Here we show that two unique classes of non-Hermitian 2D topological…
Lattice models with non-hermitian, parity and time-reversal ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetric Hamiltonians, realized most readily in coupled optical systems, have been intensely studied in the past few years. A $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric dimer…
We investigate a spinless Fermi gas trapped in a honeycomb optical lattice with attractive nearest-neighbor interactions. At zero temperature, mean-field theory predicts three quantum phase transitions, two being topological. At low…
Non-Abelian gauge fields are versatile tools for synthesizing topological phenomena but have so far been mostly studied in Hermitian systems, where gauge flux has to be defined from a closed loop in order for gauge fields, whether Abelian…
Motivated by recently reported magnetic-field induced topological phases in ultracold atoms and correlated Moir\'e materials, we investigate topological phase transitions in a minimal model consisting of interacting spinless fermions…
Parity-time (PT) symmetry and anti-PT symmetry have attracted extensive interest for their non-Hermitian spectral properties, particularly the emergence of purely real and imaginary eigenvalues in their symmetry-unbroken regime,…
The method of synthetic gauge potentials opens up a new avenue for our understanding and discovering novel quantum states of matter. We investigate the topological quantum phase transition of Fermi gases trapped in a honeycomb lattice in…
We study one-dimensional lattices with imaginary-valued Aubry-Andre-Harper (AAH) potentials. Such lattices can host edge states with purely imaginary eigenenergies, which differ from the edge states of the Hermitian AAH model and are…
The delocalization-localization (DL) transition in non-Hermitian systems exhibits intriguing features distinct from their Hermitian counterparts. In this study, we investigate the DL transition in a generalized non-Hermitian lattice with…
We consider the possibility of topological quantum phase transitions of ultracold fermions in optical lattices, which can be studied as a function of interaction strength or atomic filling factor (density). The phase transitions are…
In this paper, we investigate signatures of topological phase transitions in interacting systems. We show that the key signature is the existence of a topologically protected level crossing, which is robust and sharply defines the…
A typical f-electron Kondo lattice system Ce exhibits the well-known isostructural transition, the so-called gamma-alpha transition, accompanied by an enormous volume collapse. Most interestingly, we have discovered that a topological-phase…
We study a system involving a single quantum degree of freedom per site of the lattice interacting with a few neighbors (up to second neighbors), with the interactions chosen as to produce frustration. At zero temperature, this system…
Photonic systems with parity-time (PT) symmetry and topology are attracting considerable attentions. In this work, topological near-zero edge states are studied in PT-symmetric photonic lattice and the results indicate that the near-zero…
We study the single impurity problem in the non-Hermitian lattice described by the non-reciprocal Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model and obtain the phase diagram of localized bound states induced by the impurity. The existence of analytical results…
Topological insulators are a class of electronic materials exhibiting robust edge states immune to perturbations and disorder. This concept has been successfully adapted in photonics, where topologically nontrivial waveguides and…
In this work, we explore topological phases of matter obtained by effectively gauging or fermionizing a system, where the Gauss law constraint is only enforced energetically. In contrast to conventional gauging or fermionization, the…
Ultracold Fermi gases trapped in honeycomb optical lattices provide an intriguing scenario, where relativistic quantum electrodynamics can be tested. Here, we generalize this system to non-Abelian quantum electrodynamics, where massless…
The topological theory of phase transitions was proposed on the basis of different arguments, the most important of which are: a direct evidence of the relation between topology and phase transitions for some exactly solvable models; an…
