Non-Hermitian extension of the Haldane model induced by non-reciprocal hopping by Law, Yi Khing

“…In the presence of non-Hermiticity however, there is a failure of the correspon- dence between the bulk and the boundary which is attributed to the non-Hermitian skin effect. The report concludes with a depiction of the non-Hermitian skin effect in the form of a square geometry under open boundary conditions.…”
