Mobility edge and intermediate phase in one-dimensional incommensurate lattice potentials

X Li, S Das Sarma - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We study theoretically the localization properties of two distinct one-dimensional
quasiperiodic lattice models with a single-particle mobility edge (SPME) separating …

Hybrid scale-free skin effect in non-Hermitian systems: A transfer matrix approach

Y Fu, Y Zhang - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
Surpassing the individual characteristics of the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) and the
scale-free (SF) effect observed recently, we systematically exploit the exponential decay …

A unified perspective of complex band structure: interpretations, formulations, and applications

MG Reuter - Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Complex band structure generalizes conventional band structure by also considering
wavevectors with complex components. In this way, complex band structure describes both …

Localization of weakly disordered flat band states

D Leykam, JD Bodyfelt, AS Desyatnikov… - The European Physical …, 2017 - Springer
Certain tight binding lattices host macroscopically degenerate flat spectral bands. Their
origin is rooted in local symmetries of the lattice, with destructive interference leading to the …

Quantum oscillation signatures of interface Fermi arcs

AY Chaou, V Dwivedi, M Breitkreiz - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
Fermi-arc surface states of Weyl semimetals exhibit a unique combination of localization to a
surface and the connection to the bulk Weyl fermions. We predict characteristic quantum …

[HTML][HTML] Hyperbolic band theory through Higgs bundles

E Kienzle, S Rayan - Advances in Mathematics, 2022 - Elsevier
Hyperbolic lattices underlie a new form of quantum matter with potential applications to
quantum computing and simulation and which, to date, have been engineered artificially. A …

Majorana wave-function oscillations, fermion parity switches, and disorder in Kitaev chains

SS Hegde, S Vishveshwara - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
We study the decay and oscillations of Majorana fermion wave functions and ground-state
(GS) fermion parity in one-dimensional topological superconducting lattice systems. Using a …

Homotopic classification of band structures: Stable, fragile, delicate, and stable representation-protected topology

PW Brouwer, V Dwivedi - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
The topological classification of gapped band structures depends on the particular definition
of topological equivalence. For translation-invariant systems, stable equivalence is defined …
