Abstract

Abstract Quasi-particles described by Green‘s functions of equilibrium systems exhibit non-Hermitian topological phenomena because of their finite lifetime. This non-Hermitian perspective on equilibrium systems provides new insights into correlated systems and attracts much interest because of its potential to solve open questions in correlated compounds. We provide a concise review of the non-Hermitian topological band structures for quantum many-body systems in equilibrium, as well as their classification.
