• Abstract summary: We develop a linear response theory for nonlinear systems where the interplay between topological parameters and nonlinearity leads to new band structures. We numerically calculate the linear response of the nonlinear Chern insulator to external fields, finding that these new band structures break the condition of adiabatic evolution and make the linear response not quantized.

• Abstract: We investigate the Bloch bands and develop a linear response theory for nonlinear systems, where the interplay between topological parameters and nonlinearity leads to new band structures. The nonlinear system under consideration is described by the Qi-Wu-Zhang model with Kerr-type nonlinearity, which can be treated as a nonlinear version of Chern insulator. We explore the eigenenergies of the Hamiltonian and discuss its Bloch band structures as well as the condition of gap closing. A cone structure in the ground Bloch band and tubed structure in the excited Bloch band is found. We also numerically calculate the linear response of the nonlinear Chern insulator to external fields, finding that these new band structures break the condition of adiabatic evolution and make the linear response not quantized. This feature of response can be understood by examining the dynamics of the nonlinear system.

  Non-linear activation functions, e.g., Sigmoid, ReLU, and Tanh, have achieved great success in neural networks (NNs) Due to the complex non-linear characteristic of samples, the objective of those activation functions is to project samples from their original feature space to a linear separable feature space. This phenomenon ignites our interest in exploring whether all features need to be transformed by all non-linear functions in current typical NNs.
