Abstract summary: Non-Hermitian systems exhibit richer topological properties compared to their Hermitian counterparts. Non-Hermitian systems can be classified in two ways; a non-Hermitian system can be classified using the symmetry relations for non-Hermitian Hamiltonians or time-evolution operator.

Abstract: Non-Hermitian systems exhibit richer topological properties compared to their Hermitian counterparts. It is well known that non-Hermitian systems have been classified based on either the symmetry relations for non-Hermitian Hamiltonians or the symmetry relations for non-unitary time-evolution operators in the context of Floquet topological phases. In this work, we propose that non-Hermitian systems can always be classified in two ways; a non-Hermitian system can be classified using the symmetry relations for non-Hermitian Hamiltonians or time-evolution operator regardless of the Floquet topological phases or not. We refer to this as dual symmetry classification. To demonstrate this, we successfully introduce a new non-unitary quantum walk that exhibits point gaps with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ point-gap topological phase applying the dual symmetry classification and treating the time-evolution operator of this quantum walk as the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian.

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 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.

We focus on two realizations of non-Hermitian physics in mesoscopic systems. First, we consider spiral optical microcavities in which the asymmetric scattering between whispering gallery modes induces the non-Hermitian behaviour. Second, for parity-time (PT) symmetric ladder lattices we compare circular and M"obius geometries.

Periodically driven non-Hermitian systems could possess exotic nonequilibrium phases with unique topological, dynamical and transport properties. We introduce an experimentally realizable two-leg ladder model subjecting to both time-periodic quenches and non-Hermitian effects. Our work thus introduces a new type of non-Hermitian Floquet topological matter, and further reveals the richness of topology and dynamics in driven open systems.
