Non-Hermitian higher-order topological states in nonreciprocal and reciprocal systems with their electric-circuit realization
M Ezawa - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
A prominent feature of some one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems is that all right
eigenstates of the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian are localized in one end of the chain. The …
