The energy band theory is one of the cornerstones of condensed matter physics. It also has wide applications in other branches of physics. Recently, a number of questions from non-Hermitian physics call for a generalization of energy band theory to non-Hermitian systems. In the study of non-Hermitian topological states, it has been found that such a generalization necessitates redefinitions of certain fundamental concepts of band theory. In particular, the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) causes the breakdown of Bloch-band picture and conventional bulk-boundary correspondence. To calculate the energy spectra and define topological invariants, the standard Brillouin zone gives way to the generalized Brillouin zone (GBZ). Many intriguing non-Hermitian phenomena, including the non-Hermitian skin effect, can be precisely characterized in terms of the generalized Brillouin zone. The non-Hermitian band theory based on the concept of generalized Brillouin zone, now generally known as the non-Bloch band theory, has successfully described and predicted a number of novel non-Hermitian phenomena. The present article provides a brief introduction to the main concepts of non-Bloch band theory, and its applications in the non-Hermitian bulk-boundary correspondence, Green’s functions, wave dynamics, chiral damping, and non-Bloch parity-time symmetry.

(c) 平均粒子数偏离值$\tilde n(t)$ 在周期边界条件下的演化. A和B表现为缓慢的代数衰减, 而C和D为指数衰减. (d) 每个格点上的费米子数偏离$\tilde n_x(t)$ 在周期边界条件(左)和开放边界条件(右)下的演化. (e) 不同长度系统中平均费米子数偏离$\tilde n(t)$ 在周期边界条件(实线)和开放边界条件(虚线)下的演化. (f) 费米子数偏离$\tilde n_x(t)$ 在开放边界条件(虚线)下的演化. (d)—(f)的参数为$t_1=t_2=1,\; \gamma_g=\gamma_l=0.2$ . (c)—(f) 中所有演化过程的初态均为全占据态$\prod_{x, s}\hat{c}_{x, s}^\dagger \left| 0 \right\rangle$ [74]Figure 9.

$ {{H}} $ with additional single-particle gain and loss. (b) Eigenenergies of damping matrix$ {{X}} $ . Blue: periodic boundary condition. Red: open boundary condition. The Liouvillian gap under periodic boundary condition is zero for A and B ($t_1\leqslant t_2$ ), while it is nonzero for C and D ($t_1>t_2$ ). Parameter values are shown in panel (c). (c) Time evolution of the fermion number deviation from the steady-state value,$\tilde n(t)$ , of a periodic-boundary chain. The damping is algebraic for A, B and exponential for C, D. (d) Time evolution of site-resolved fermion number deviation from the steady-state values,$\tilde n_x(t)$ , for the periodic boundary condition (left) and open boundary condition (right). (e) Time evolution of$\tilde n(t)$ under periodic boundary conditions (solid curve) and open boundary conditions (dashed curves) for different chain length$L$ . (f) Time evolution of$\tilde n_x(t)$ for an open-boundary chain at different$x$ . Parameters in (d)–(f):$t_1=t_2=1, \;\gamma_g=\gamma_l=0.2$ . The initial state in (c)–(f) is$\prod_{x, s}\hat{c}_{x, s}^\dagger \left| 0 \right\rangle$ [74].

Parameter values:$\theta^{\rm{R}}_1=0.5625\pi,\; \theta^{\rm{L}}_1=-0.0625\pi, \;\gamma=0.2746$ : (a)$\theta^{\rm{L}}_2=0.75\pi$ ; (b)$\theta^{\rm{L}}_2=-0.9735\pi$ . Blue and gray lines represent quasi-energies under open boundary condition and periodic boundary condition, respectively[85].

(d)中边界格点上有随机势$V=\displaystyle \sum\nolimits_{\boldsymbol{r}\in\text{Boundary}}w(\boldsymbol{r}) \left| {\boldsymbol{r}} \right\rangle \left\langle {\boldsymbol{r}} \right|$ , 其中$w(\boldsymbol{r})$ 在$[-W/2, W/2]$ 中均匀分布且$W=0.7$ . 能量虚部的绝对值$|\operatorname{Im}(E)|>10^{-10}$ 即被视为复数能量[86]Figure 11. Complex eigenenergies proportion
$P$ for four different systems under open boundary condition: (a), (e)$ {{H}}_{1 {\rm{D}}} $ on a length-$L$ chain with$t=1,\; s=0.15$ ; (b), (f)$ {{H}}_{2 {\rm{D}}}^{\text{skin}} $ on$L\times L$ squares with$t=1,\; s=0.3$ ; (c), (g)$ {{H}}_{2 {\rm{D}}}^{\text{no skin}} $ on$L\times L$ squares with$m=0.5, \;t=0.2,\; \varDelta=0$ ; (d), (h)$ {{H}}_{3 {\rm{D}}} $ on$L\times L\times L$ cubes with$t=1,\; s=0.5$ . For (d), there is an on-site random potential$V=\displaystyle \sum\nolimits_{\mathbf{r}\in\text{Boundary}}w(\boldsymbol{r}) \left| {\boldsymbol{r}} \right\rangle \left\langle {\boldsymbol{r}} \right|$ on boundary sites where$w(\boldsymbol{r})$ is uniformly distributed in$[-W/2, W/2]$ with$W=0.7$ . Numerically, a complex energy holds a nonzero imaginary part if$|\operatorname{Im}(E)|>10^{-10}$ [86]. -
