• Abstract: We study the nonlinear perturbation of a high-order exceptional point (EP) of the order equal to the system site number $L$ in a Hatano-Nelson model with unidirectional hopping and Kerr nonlinearity. Notably, We find a class of discrete breathers that aggregate to one boundary, here named as {\it skin discrete breathers} (SDBs). The nonlinear spectrum of these SDBs shows a hierarchical power-law scaling near the EP. Specifically, the response of nonlinear energy to the perturbation is given by $E_m\propto \varGamma^{\alpha_{m}}$, where $\alpha_m=3^{m-1}$ is the power with $m=1,\cdots,L$ labeling the nonlinear energy bands. This is in sharp contrast to the $L$-th root of a linear perturbation in general. These SDBs decay in a double-exponential manner, unlike the edge states or skin modes in linear systems, which decay exponentially. Furthermore, these SDBs can survive over the full range of nonlinearity strength and are continuously connected to the self-trapped states in the limit of large nonlinearity. They are also stable, as confirmed by a defined nonlinear fidelity of an adiabatic evolution from the stability analysis. As nonreciprocal nonlinear models may be experimentally realized in various platforms, such as the classical platform of optical waveguides, where Kerr nonlinearity is naturally present, and the quantum platform of optical lattices with Bose-Einstein condensates, our analytical results may inspire further exploration of the interplay between nonlinearity and non-Hermiticity, particularly on high-order EPs, and benchmark the relevant simulations.

• Fast quantum state discrimination with nonlinear PTP channels [0.0]
  We investigate models of nonlinear quantum computation based on deterministic positive trace-preserving (PTP) channels and evolution equations. PTP channels support Bloch ball torsion and other distortions studied previously, where it has been shown that such nonlinearity can be used to increase the separation between a pair of close qubit states. We argue that this operation can be made robust to noise by using dissipation to induce a bifurcation to a novel phase where a pair of attracting fixed points create an intrinsically fault-tolerant nonlinear state discriminator.
