- Abstract summary: The scalefree non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) refers to the phenomenon that the localization length of skin modes scales proportionally with system size in non-Hermitian systems.
In this paper, we suggest that the scalefree NHSE is a universal phenomenon, observable in extensive systems if these systems can be described by non-Bloch band theory.

- Abstract: The scalefree non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) refers to the phenomenon that
the localization length of skin modes scales proportionally with system size in
non-Hermitian systems. Authors of recent studies have demonstrated that the
scalefree NHSE can be induced through various mechanisms, including the
critical NHSE, local non-Hermiticity, and the boundary impurity effect.
Nevertheless, these methods require careful modeling and precise parameter
tuning. In contrast, in this paper, we suggest that the scalefree NHSE is a
universal phenomenon, observable in extensive systems if these systems can be
described by non-Bloch band theory and host Bloch points on the energy spectrum
in the thermodynamic limit. Crucially, we discover that the geometry of the
generalized Brillouin zone determines the scaling rule of the localization
length, which can scale either linearly or quadratically with the system size.
In this paper, we enriches the phenomenon of the scalefree NHSE.

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.

The non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) refers to that an extensive number of eigenstates of a non-Hermitian system are localized in open boundaries.
Here we predict a universal phenomenon that with local particle-hole(-like) symmetry the skin modes must be equally distributed on different boundaries.
We develop a generic theory for the emergent nonlocal symmetry-protected NHSE by connecting the non-Hermitian system to an extended Hermitian Hamiltonian in aruplicate Hilbert space.
