Knot topology of exceptional point and non-Hermitian no-go theorem

Exceptional points (EPs) are peculiar band singularities and play a vital role in a rich array of unusual optical phenomena and non-Hermitian band theory. In this Letter, we provide a topological classification of isolated EPs based on homotopy theory. In particular, the classification indicates tha...
