Abstract
Although topological phenomena attract growing interest not only in linear systems but also in nonlinear systems, the bulk-edge correspondence under the nonlinearity of eigenvalues has not been established so far. We address this issue by introducing auxiliary eigenvalues. We reveal that the topological edge states of auxiliary eigenstates are topologically inherited as physical edge states when the nonlinearity is weak but finite (i.e., auxiliary eigenvalues are monotonic as for the physical one). This result leads to the bulk-edge correspondence with the nonlinearity of eigenvalues.

Abstract
Flatbands play an important role in correlated quantum matter and have promising applications in photonic lattices. Synthetic magnetic fields and destructive interference in lattices are traditionally used to obtain flatbands. However, such methods can only obtain a few flatbands with most bands remaining dispersive. Here we realize all-band-flat photonic lattices of an arbitrary size by precisely controlling the coupling strengths between lattice sites to mimic those in Fock-state lattices. This allows us to go beyond the perturbative regime of strain engineering and group all eigenmodes in flatbands, which simultaneously achieves high band flatness and large usable bandwidth. We map out the distribution of each flatband in the lattices and selectively excite the eigenmodes with different chiralities. Our method paves a way in controlling band structure and topology of photonic lattices.

Abstract
With light-matter interaction extending into the strong regime, as well as rapid development of laser technology, systems subjecting to a time-periodic perturbation have attracted broad attention. Floquet theorem and Floquet time-independent Hamiltonian are powerful theoretical frameworks to investigate the systems subjected to time-periodic drivings. In this study, we extend the previous generalized surface hopping (SH) algorithm near a metal surface (J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2017, 13, 6, 2430-2439) to the Floquet space, and hence, we develop a generalized Floquet representation-based SH (FR-SH) algorithm. Here, we consider an open quantum system with fast drivings. We expect that the present algorithm will be useful for understanding the chemical processes of molecules under time-periodic driving near the metal surface.

Abstract
Quantized vortices appearing in topological excitations of quantum phase transition play a pivotal role in strongly correlated physics involving the underlying confluence of superfluids, Bose-Einstein condensates and superconductors. Exciton polaritons as bosonic quasiparticles have enabled studies of non-equilibrium quantum gases and superfluidity. Exciton-polariton condensates in artificial lattices intuitively emulate energy-band structures and quantum many-body effects of condensed matter, underpinning constructing vortex lattices and controlling quantum fluidic circuits. Here, we harness exciton-polariton quantum fluids of light in a frustrated kagome lattice based on robust metal-halide perovskite microcavities, to demonstrate vortex lasing arrays and modulate their configurations at room temperature. Tomographic energy-momentum spectra unambiguously reveal massless Dirac bands and quenched kinetic-energy flat bands coexisting in kagome lattices, where polariton condensates exhibit prototypical honeycomb and kagome spatial patterns. Spatial coherence investigations illustrate two types of phase textures of polariton condensates carrying ordered quantized-vortex arrays and π-phase shifts, which could be selected when needed using lasing emission energy. Our findings offer a promising platform on which it is possible to study quantum-fluid correlations in complex polaritonic lattices and highlight feasible applications of structured light.

Abstract
Photonics can be confined in real space with dispersion vanishing in the momentum space due to destructive interference. In this Letter, we report the experimental realization of flat bands with nontrivial topology in a self-complementary plasmonic metasurface. The band diagram and compact localized states are measured. In these nontrivial band gaps, we observe the topological edge states by near-field measurements. Furthermore, we propose a digitalized metasurface by loading controllable diodes with C_{3} symmetry in every unit cell. By pumping a digital signal into the metasurface, we investigate the interaction between incident waves and the dynamic metasurface. Experimental results indicate that compact localized states in the nontrivial flat band could enhance the wave-matter interactions to convert more incident waves to time-modulated harmonic photonics. Although our experiments are conducted in the microwave regime, extending the related concepts into the optical plasmonic systems is feasible. Our findings pave an avenue toward planar integrated photonic devices with nontrivial flat bands and exotic transmission phenomena.

Abstract
This paper numerically investigates the evolution of solitons in an optical lattice with gradual longitudinal manipulation. We find that the stationary solutions (with added noise to the amplitude) keep their width, profile, and intensity very well, although the propagation path is continuously changing during the modulated propagation. Discontinuities in the modulation functions cause the scattering of the beam that may end the stable propagation. Our results reveal a method to control the trajectory of solitons by designed variation of the optical lattice waveguides. Interesting examples presented include the snakelike and spiraling solitons that both can be adaptively induced in sinusoidally and helically shaped optical lattices. The controlled propagation paths provide an excellent opportunity for various applications, including optical switches and signal transmission, among others.

Abstract
One of the recently established paradigms in condensed matter physics is examining a system's behaviour in artificial potentials, giving insight into phenomena of quantum fluids in hard-to-reach settings. A prominent example is the matter-wave scatterer lattice, where high energy matter waves undergo transmission and reflection through narrow width barriers leading to stringent phase matching conditions with lattice band formation. In contrast to evanescently coupled lattice sites, the realisation of a scatterer lattice for macroscopic matter-wave fluids has remained elusive. Here, we implement a system of exciton-polariton condensates in a non-Hermitian Lieb lattice of scatterer potentials. By fine tuning the lattice parameters, we reveal a nonequilibrium phase transition between distinct regimes of polariton condensation: a scatterer lattice of gain guided polaritons condensing on the lattice potential maxima, and trapped polaritons condensing in the potential minima. Our results pave the way towards unexplored physics of non-Hermitian fluids in non-stationary mixtures of confined and freely expanding waves.

Abstract
Topological properties of lattices are typically revealed in momentum space using concepts such as the Chern number. Here, we study unconventional loop states, namely, the noncontractible loop states (NLSs) and robust boundary modes, mediated by nontrivial topology in real space. While such states play a key role in understanding fundamental physics of flatband systems, their experimental observation has been hampered because of the challenge in realizing desired boundary conditions. Using a laser-writing technique, we optically establish photonic kagome lattices with both an open boundary by properly truncating the lattice, and a periodic boundary by shaping the lattice into a Corbino geometry. We thereby demonstrate the robust boundary modes winding around the entire edge of the open lattice and, more directly, the NLSs winding in a closed loop akin to that in a torus. We prove that the NLSs due to real-space topology persist in ideal Corbino-shaped kagome lattices of arbitrary size. Our results could be of great importance for our understanding of the singular flatbands and the intriguing physics phenomenon applicable for strongly interacting systems.
