Eigenvalue knots and their isotopic equivalence in three-state non-Hermitian systems
The spectrum of a non-Hermitian system generically forms a two-dimensional complex Riemannian manifold with a distinct topology from the underlying parameter space. This spectral topology permits eigenvalue trajectories to braid into knots. In this paper, through the analyses of encircling loops, ex...
