Topological non-Hermitian origin of surface Maxwell waves
Electromagnetic surface waves, derived from Maxwell theory, underpin many optical effects and applications. Here, Bliokh et al. show that surface waves at interfaces between isotropic media have a topological origin described by the non-Hermitian helicity operator and bulk-boundary correspondence.
