Solvable analogue of the imaginary cubic oscillator

Quantum Physics 2026-01-30 v1

Abstract

We prove that the purely imaginary square well generates an infinite number of bound states with real energies. In the strong-coupling limit, our exact PT symmetric solutions coincide, utterly unexpectedly, with their textbook, well known Hermitian predecessors.
