of mathematical concepts have been introduced in condensed matter physics. Among them …

Exceptional topology of non-Hermitian systems

EJ Bergholtz, JC Budich, FK Kunst - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2021 - APS
The current understanding of the role of topology in non-Hermitian (NH) systems and its far-
reaching physical consequences observable in a range of dissipative settings are reviewed …

Topological origin of non-Hermitian skin effects

N Okuma, K Kawabata, K Shiozaki, M Sato - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
A unique feature of non-Hermitian systems is the skin effect, which is the extreme sensitivity
to the boundary conditions. Here, we reveal that the skin effect originates from intrinsic non …

Generalized bulk–boundary correspondence in non-Hermitian topolectrical circuits

T Helbig, T Hofmann, S Imhof, M Abdelghany… - Nature Physics, 2020 - nature.com
The study of the laws of nature has traditionally been pursued in the limit of isolated systems,
where energy is conserved. This is not always a valid approximation, however, as the …

Correspondence between winding numbers and skin modes in non-Hermitian systems

K Zhang, Z Yang, C Fang - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We establish exact relations between the winding of “energy”(eigenvalue of Hamiltonian) on
the complex plane as momentum traverses the Brillouin zone with periodic boundary …

Topological non-Hermitian skin effect

R Lin, T Tai, L Li, CH Lee - Frontiers of Physics, 2023 - Springer
