Applications of Chebyshev polynomials and Toeplitz theory to topologicalmetamaterials

by H. Ammari and S. Barandun and P. Liu

(Report number 2024-29)

Abstract
We survey the use of Chebyshev polynomials and Toeplitz theory for studying topological metamaterials. We consider both Hermitian and non-Hermitian systems of subwavelength resonators and provide a mathematical framework to explain some spectacular properties of metamaterials.

Keywords: Topological metamaterials, nonreciprocal metamaterials, topological interface modes, non-Hermitian skin effect, tunable localisation, generalised Brillouin zone, Chebyshev polynomials, Toeplitz theory.
