Abstract
Topological edge states are known to emerge in certain quasicrystals. We investigate a topological quasicrystal in the presence of nonlinearity by generalizing the Toda lattice to include modulated periodic hoppings, where the period is taken irrational to the original lattice. It is found that topological edge states in a quasicrystal survive against nonlinearity based on the quench dynamics. It is also found that an extended-localization transition is induced by the quasicrystal hopping modulation. The present model is experimentally realizable by a transmission line with variable capacitance diodes, where the inductance is modulated.
