In the present work we focus on the case of (few-site) configurations respecting the PT-symmetry. We examine the case of such "oligomers" with not only 2-sites, as in earlier works, but also the cases of 3- and 4-sites. While in the former…

We consider a $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric chain (ladder-shaped) system governed by the discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation where the cubic nonlinearity is carried solely by two central "rungs" of the ladder. Two branches of scattering…

We introduce a class of PT-symmetric systems which include mutually matched nonlinear loss and gain (inother words, a class of PT-invariant Hamiltonians in which both the harmonic and anharmonic parts are non-Hermitian). For a basic system…
