Abstract

We consider a quantum particle under the dynamical confinement caused by PT-symmetric box with a moving wall. The latter is described in terms of the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation obeying the time-dependent PT-symmetric boundary conditions. The class of the functions, describing time-dependence of the wall's position and keeping the system as PT-symmetric is found. Physically observable characteristics, such as average kinetic energy and the average quantum force are calculated as a function of time. Also, geometric phase is calculated for the harmonically oscillating wall regime. Experimental realization of the proposed model is discussed.
