We consider bound and scattering states of the one-dimensional dimer formed by two coupled non-identical atoms when one of them also interacts with the zero-range potential located at the origin. By calculating the dimer localized and…

We investigate the dynamics of parity- and time-reversal (PT ) symmetric two-energy-level atoms in the presence of two optical and a radio-frequency (rf) fields. The strength and relative phase of fields can drive the system from unbroken…

In globally coupled ensembles of identical oscillators so-called chimera states can be observed. The chimera state is a symmetry-broken regime, where a subset of oscillators forms a cluster, a synchronized population, while the rest of the…

`Hypergeometric states', which are a one-parameter generalization of binomial states of the single-mode quantized radiation field, are introduced and their nonclassical properties are investigated. Their limits to the binomial states and to…

A scheme is proposed to dynamically excite distinct eigenstate superpositions in three-body Bose-Fermi mixtures confined in a two-dimensional harmonic trap. The system is initialized in a non-interacting state with a variable spatial…

We study critical phenomena of the SU(3) symmetric spin-1 chains when adding the SU(3) asymmetric term. To investigate such system, we numerically diagonalize the Dimer-Trimer (DT) model Hamiltonian around the SU(3) symmetric point, named…

In many PT symmetric models with real spectra, apparently, energy levels "merge and disappear" at a point of the spontaneous PT-symmetry breaking. We argue that such an oversimplified and discontinuous physical interpretation of this…

It is well known that typical PT-symmetric systems suffer symmetry breaking when the strength of the gain-loss terms exceeds a certain critical value. We present a summary of recently published and newly produced results which demonstrate…

We scrutinize the many known forms of BRST symmetries, as well as some new ones, realized within a prototypical first-class system. Similarities and differences among ordinary BRST, anti-BRST, dual-BRST and anti-dual-BRST symmetries are…

Chimera is a fascinating phenomenon of coexisting synchronized and desynchronized behaviour that was discovered in networks of nonlocally coupled identical phase oscillators over ten years ago. Since then, chimeras were found in numerous…

PT-symmetric systems can have a real spectrum even when their Hamiltonian is non-hermitian, but develop a complex spectrum when the degree of non-hermiticity increases. Here we utilize random-matrix theory to show that this spontaneous…
