Claims
The method guarantees branch identity continuity--a one-to-one correspondence between solutions at s=0 and s=1--provided the real-parameter path does not cross any exceptional points, yielding the characteristic real-part veering with imaginary-part crossing without post-processing.
The real-parameter path does not cross any exceptional points (or follows Type I exceptional point topology), so that physical mode labels established at the elastic stage remain valid at the viscoelastic stage.
A material homotopy continuation framework computes dispersion curves in viscoelastic waveguides by continuously mapping to an elastic problem while guaranteeing branch identity continuity under non-crossing exceptional points.
