摘要
Understanding the critical properties is essential for determining the physical behavior of topological systems. In this context, scaling theories based on the curvature function in momentum space, the renormalization group (RG) method, and the universality of critical exponents have proven effective. In this work, we develop a scaling theory for non-Hermitian topological states of matter. We utilize the curvature function renormalization group (CRG) method, incorporating biorthonormal vectors for a one dimensional 2x2 non-Hermitian Dirac model. This approach allows us to analyze the Wannier state correlation function (WCF) and determine the corresponding localization critical exponent. The CRG method successfully identifies topological phase transitions and locates stable and unstable fixed points. To account for non-Hermitian effects, we construct the curvature function in the generalized Brillouin zone using non-Bloch wave functions, enabling a comprehensive WCF and CRG analysis.
