“…Several non-Hermitian models with disorder or incommensurate potentials have been investigated, in which non-Hermiticity is introduced by considering either complex on-site potentials, phenomenologically describing dissipation and/or amplification with the surrounding enviroment, or asymmetric hopping amplitudes, such as in systems with synthetic imaginary gauge fields. In systems with on-site complex disorder (non-Hermitian Anderson model), it was shown that a purely imaginary disorder can induce localization like in the Hermitian Anderson localization problem, with a duality between dissipation and amplification [21,22,27,30,34]. On the other hand, for real-energy on-site potential disorder a non-Hermitian delocalization transition is observed * stefano.longhi@polimi.it by application of an imaginary gauge field (Hatano-Nelson-Anderson model [23-26, 29, 33, 39, 46, 47, 49]).…”
