• Title: Non-Hermitian edge burst without skin localizations
• Authors: C. Yuce, H. Ramezani
• Abstract summary: In a class of non-Hermitian quantum walk in lossy lattices with open boundary conditions, an unexpected peak in the distribution of decay probabilities appears at the edge, dubbed edge burst. It is proposed that the edge burst is originated jointly from the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) and the imaginary gaplessness of the spectrum.

• Abstract: In a class of non-Hermitian quantum walk in lossy lattices with open boundary conditions, an unexpected peak in the distribution of the decay probabilities appears at the edge, dubbed edge burst. It is proposed that the edge burst is originated jointly from the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) and the imaginary gaplessness of the spectrum [Wen-Tan Xue et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 128, 120401 (2022)]. Using a particular one-dimensional lossy lattice with a nonuniform loss rate, we show that the edge burst can occur even in the absence of skin localization. Furthermore, we discuss that the edge burst may not appear if the spectrum satisfies the imaginary gaplesness condition. Aside from its fundamental importance, by removing the restrictions on observing the edge burst effect, our results open the door to broader design space for future applications of the edge burst effect.

  We identify the non-Bloch topological phase diagram of a one-dimensional (1D) non-Hermitian system without chiral symmetry. We find that such topological invariants can distinguish topologically distinct gapped phases. Our work provides a useful platform to study the interplay among topology, symmetries and the non-Hermiticity.

In the edge-skin effect, the spectrum exhibits anomalous spectral sensitivity to weak local disturbances, a feature that crucially distinguishes it from the corner-skin effect.

• Infernal and Exceptional Edge Modes: Non-Hermitian Topology Beyond the Skin Effect [0.0]
  We derive the edge signatures of all two-dimensional phases with intrinsic point gap topology. We find two broad classes of non-Hermitian edge states: (1) Infernal points, where a skin effect occurs only at a single edge momentum, while all other edge momenta are devoid of edge states. Surprisingly, the latter class of systems allows for a finite, non-extensive number of edge states with a well defined dispersion along all generic edge terminations.

• Anomalously large relaxation times in dissipative lattice models beyond the non-Hermitian skin effect [49.1574468325115]
  We show for generic quantum non-Hermitian tight-binding models that relaxation of local observables are not controlled by the localization length. interference between eigenvectors effectively makes the extreme localization of modes largely irrelevant to relaxation. Our work highlights an important aspect of the non-Hermitian skin effect: the exceptional sensitivity to boundary conditions here necessarily takes a finite amount of time to manifest itself.
