• Authors: Kyu-Won Park, Jinuk Kim, and Kabgyun Jeong
• Abstract summary: We generate exceptional points (EPs) on two-level systems in a single microcavity by adopting the non-Hermitian coupling of a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian under the imaginary (dominant) coupling. To generate multiple EPs, multiple levels or composite physical systems have been employed with Hermitian couplings.

• Abstract: Exceptional points (EPs) have recently attracted considerable attention in the study of non-Hermitian systems and in applications such as sensors and mode switching. In particular, nontrivial topological structures of EPs have been studied intensively in relation to encircling EPs. Thus, EP generation is currently an important issue in several fields. To generate multiple EPs, multiple levels or composite physical systems have been employed with Hermitian couplings. In this study, we generate multiple EPs on two-level systems in a single microcavity by adopting the non-Hermitian coupling of a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian under the imaginary (dominant) coupling. The topological structures of Riemann surfaces generated by non-Hermitian coupling exhibit features that are different from those of Riemann surfaces generated by Hermitian coupling. The features of these topological structures of Riemann surfaces were verified by encircling multiple EPs and using a Riemann sphere.

  We show topologically ordered states in the complex-valued spectra of non-Hermitian systems. These arise when the distinctive exceptional points in the energy surfaces of such models are annihilated. We illustrate the characteristics of the topologically protected states in a non-Hermitian two-band model.

  Phenomena associated with exceptional points (EPs) have been extensively studied in relation to superconducting circuits. We consider a monitored three level system and find multiple EPs in the Lindbladian eigenvalues considered as functions of a counting field. We identify dynamical observables affected by these transitions and demonstrate how the underlying topology can be recovered from experimentally measured quantum jump distributions.

• Exceptional points in SSH-like models with hopping amplitude gradient [41.94295877935867]
  Recent interest in exceptional points has led to re-examination of non-Hermitian generalizations of many physical models. In such non-Hermitian systems, singular points called exceptional points (EPs) appear that are of interest for applications in super-resolution sensing systems and topological lasers. It is found that while the existence of the EPs is due to the nonreciprocal couplings, the number, position, and order of the EPs can all be altered by the addition of the hopping amplitude gradient.
