Abstract
The presence or absence of topologically-produced edge states of a crystal are robust to disorder; their stability in the presence of decay is less clear. For topologically nontrivial bosonic systems with finite particle lifetimes, such as photonic, phononic, or magnonic structures, a natural hypothesis suggests that if the linewidth from particle decay exceeds the gap between neighboring bands, then topological features such as Berry phases or edge states will lose their protection. Here we show that topological properties are significantly more robust than this, by assessing the properties of a one-dimensional magnonic crystal as the damping is increased. Even when the damping greatly exceeds the gap between neighboring bands the Zak phase of those bands is nearly unchanged, and the edge states remain clearly visible in micromagnetic simulations of microwave transmission. These results clarify the understanding of robust topological properties and bulk-boundary correspondence.
