Versatile control of nonlinear topological states in non-Hermitian systems

Abstract The non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) and nonlinearity can both delocalize topological modes (TMs) from the interface. However, the NHSE requires precise parameter tuning, while the nonlinearity in Hermitian systems results in partial delocalization with limited mode capacity. To overcome th...
