Mobility edges generated by the non-Hermitian flatband lattice

We study the cross-stitch flatband lattice subject to the quasiperiodic complex potential exp(i x). We firstly identify the exact expression of quadratic mobility edges through analytical calculation, then verify the theoretical predictions by numerically calculating the inverse participation ratio. Further more, we study the relationship between the real–complex spectrum transition and the localization–delocalization transition, and demonstrate that mobility edges in this non-Hermitian model not only separate localized from extended states but also indicate the coexistence of complex and real spectrum.
