Abstract
Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians have been extensively studied at the single-particle level. Here, the authors investigate interaction-induced topological Mott insulators in a non-Hermitian fermionic superlattice system, and discover an anomalous boundary effect without its Hermitian counterpart. The interplay of nonreciprocal hopping, superlattice potential, and interactions leads to the absence of edge excitations, defined via only right eigenvectors, of some in-gap states for both the neutral and charge excitation spectra, which can be restored using biorthogonal eigenvectors.

Phase transitions in a non-Hermitian Aubry-André-Harper model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a non-Hermitian extension of the Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model, and show that the dynamical localization-delocalization transition is discontinuous, not only in the diffusion exponent, but also in the speed $v$ of ballistic transport.

Localization and topological transitions in non-Hermitian quasiperiodic lattices

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the localization and topological transitions in a one-dimensional (interacting) non-Hermitian quasiperiodic lattice, which is described by a generalized Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model with irrational modulations in the off-diagonal hopping and on-site potential and with non-hermiticities from the non-reciprocal hopping and complex potential phase.

Absence of Mott Transition in an Exact Solution of the Short-Range, One-Band Model in One Dimension

TL;DR: In this paper, the short-range, one-band model for electron correlations in a narrow energy band is solved exactly in the one-dimensional case, and the ground-state energy, wave function, and chemical potentials are obtained, and it is found that the ground state exhibits no conductor-insulator transition as the correlation strength is increased.

Parity–time-symmetric whispering-gallery microcavities

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that coupled optical microcavities bear all the hallmarks of parity-time symmetry; that is, the system dynamics are unchanged by both time-reversal and mirror transformations.

Parity–time synthetic photonic lattices

TL;DR: The experimental observation of light transport in large-scale temporal lattices that are parity–time symmetric is reported and it is demonstrated that periodic structures respecting this symmetry can act as unidirectional invisible media when operated near their exceptional points.

Wave-function approach to dissipative processes in quantum optics.

TL;DR: An alternative approach using a wave-function treatment to describe the atomic system and it is shown that this treatment is equivalent to the standard density matrix approach leading to the OBE's.
