Abstract: In this paper, we show that three different generalized similarities enclose all unitary and anti-unitary symmetries that induce exceptional points in lower-dimensional non-Hermitian systems. We prove that the generalized similarity conditions result in a larger class of systems than any class defined by a unitary or anti-unitary symmetry. Further we highlight that the similarities enforce spectral symmetry on the Hamiltonian resulting in a reduction of the codimension of exceptional points. As a consequence we show that the similarities drive the emergence of exceptional points in lower dimensions without the more restrictive need for a unitary and/or anti-unitary symmetry.

Topological nature of edge states for one-dimensional systems without symmetry protection [46.87902365052209]
We numerically verify and analytically prove a winding number invariant that correctly predicts the number of edge states in one-dimensional, nearest-neighbour (between unit cells) Our invariant is invariant under unitary and similarity transforms.

Exceptional Points and Stability in Nonlinear Models of Population Dynamics having $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry [49.1574468325115]
We analyze models governed by the replicator equation of evolutionary game theory and related Lotka-Volterra systems of population dynamics. We study the emergence of exceptional points in two cases: (a) when the governing symmetry properties are tied to global properties of the models, and (b) when these symmetries emerge locally around stationary states.

We consider non-Hermitian tight-binding one-dimensional Hamiltonians. We show that imposing a certain symmetry causes all eigenvalues to pair up and the corresponding eigenstates to coalesce in pairs.

Topological Order in the Spectral Riemann Surfaces of Non-Hermitian Systems [44.99833362998488]
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.

Braiding topology of symmetry-protected degeneracy points in non-Hermitian systems [6.900105712241852]
We find that pairwise-created symmetry-protected degeneracy points merge into a higher-order degeneracy point, which goes beyond the abelian picture. Our findings empower researchers across diverse fields to uncover new phenomena and applications harnessing symmetry-protected non-Hermitian degeneracy points.

Duality viewpoint of criticality [10.697358928025304]
We study quantum many-body systems which are self-dual under duality transformation connecting different symmetry protected topological phases. We provide a geometric explanation of the criticality of these self-dual models. We illustrate our results with several examples in one and two dimensions, which separate two different SPTs.

In particular, we consider Abelian symmetries and derive an explicit expression for the logarithmic entanglement negativity of systems with $mathbbZ_N$ and $U(1)$ symmetry groups.
