Non-Hermitian topology and entanglement in an optomechanical superlattice by Wojciech Brzezicki, Timo Hyart, Francesco Massel

“…The interplay between topology and dissipation can give rise to a wealth of new phenomena and pave the way for novel topological lasers, sensors, and other quantum devices. Along these lines, we propose here an optomechanical setup in which the concomitant presence of a spatially modulated external drive and dissipation gives rise to a topologically nontrivial state for mechanical and optical excitations. …”
