Non-perturbative Breakdown of Blochs Theorem and Hermitian Skin Effects


الملخص بالإنكليزية

In conventional Hermitian systems with the open boundary condition, Blochs theorem is perturbatively broken down, which means although the crystal momentum is not a good quantum number, the eigenstates are the superposition of several extended Bloch waves. In this paper, we show that Blochs theorem can be non-perturbatively broken down in some Hermitian Bosonic systems. The quasiparticles of the system are the superposition of localized non-Bloch waves, which are characterized by the complex momentum whose imaginary part determines the localization properties. Our work is a Hermitian generalization of the non-Hermitian skin effect, although they share the same mechanism.
