Braid-protected topological band structures with unpaired exceptional points
We demonstrate the existence of topologically stable unpaired exceptional points (EPs), and construct simple non-Hermitian (NH) tight-binding models exemplifying such remarkable nodal phases. While fermion doubling, i.e., the necessity of compensating the topological charge of a stable nodal point b...
