We study a bipartite collective spin-$1$ model with exchange interaction between the spins. The bipartite nature of the model manifests itself by the spins being divided into two equal-sized subsystems; within each subsystem the spin-spin…

A geometrical characterization of robustly separable (that is, remaining separable under sufficiently small variiations) mixed states of a bipartite quantum system is given. It is shown that the density matrix of any such state can be…
We formulate a systematic algorithm for constructing a whole class of Hermitian position-dependent-mass Hamiltonians which, to lowest order of perturbation theory, allow a description in terms of PT-symmetric Hamiltonians. The method is…
In this letter, we study how the spectrum of pseudo-Hermitian systems is influenced by the ambiguity in the choice of the pseudo-metric operator. In particular, we analyze the case when different parameter-independent choices of…
We introduce an explicit definition for 'hidden correlations' on individual entities in a compound system: when one individual entity is measured, this induces a well-defined transition of the 'proper state' of the other individual…
We introduce a class of inequalities based on low order correlations of operators to detect entanglement in bipartite systems. The operators may either be Hermitian or non-Hermitian and are applicable to any physical system or class of…
Motivated by the recent developments of pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics, we analyze the structure generated by unbounded metric operators in a Hilbert space. To that effect, we consider the notions of similarity and quasi-similarity…
Inspired by the `computable cross norm' or `realignment' criterion, we propose a new point of view about the characterization of the states of bipartite quantum systems. We consider a Schmidt decomposition of a bipartite density operator.…
We formulate one dimensional many-body integrable systems in terms of a new set of phase space variables involving exchange operators. The hamiltonian in these variables assumes a decoupled form. This greatly simplifies the derivation of…
We formulate N-fold supersymmetry in quantum mechanical matrix models. As an example, we construct general two-by-two Hermitian matrix 2-fold supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems. We find that there are two inequivalent such systems,…
Asymptotic state of an open quantum system can undergo qualitative changes upon small variation of system parameters. We demonstrate it that such 'quantum bifurcations' can be appropriately defined and made visible as changes in the…
Factorization of quantum mechanical Hamiltonians has been a useful technique for some time. This procedure has been given an elegant description by supersymmetric quantum mechanics, and the subject has become well-developed. We demonstrate…
One of the most central and controversial element of quantum mechanics is the use of non zero vectors of a Hilbert space (or, more generally, of one dimension subspaces) for representing the state of a quantum system. In particular, the…
We develop a manifest non-Hermitian approach of spectral and transport properties of two- dimensional mesoscopic systems in strong magnetic field. The finite system to which several ter- minals are attached constitutes an open system that…
Hamiltonian theory of hybrid quantum-classical systems is used to study dynamics of the classical subsystem coupled to different types of quantum systems. It is shown that the qualitative properties of orbits of the classical subsystem…
