We consider a single particle which is bound by a central potential and obeys the Dirac equation. We compare two cases in which the masses are the same but Va < Vb, where V is the time-component of a vector potential. We prove generally…

The importance of the spectral density of the Dirac operator in studying spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and anomalous U(1) axial symmetry breaking are reviewed. It is shown that both types of symmetry breaking can be traced to effects…

Parity-time ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetry plays an important role both in non-Hermitian and topological systems. In non-Hermitian systems $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry can lead to an entirely real energy spectrum, while in topological systems…
