We present what we believe to be the first known example of an exact quasiperiodic localized stable solution with spatially symmetric large-amplitude oscillations in a non-integrable Hamiltonian lattice model. The model is a one-dimensional…

The XX spin-chain with non-Hermitian diagonal boundary conditions is shown to be quasi-Hermitian for special values of the boundary parameters. This is proved by explicit construction of a new inner product employing a "quasi-fermion"…

In the present work, we consider a prototypical example of a PT-symmetric Dirac model. We discuss the underlying linear limit of the model and identify the threshold of the PT-phase transition in an analytical form. We then focus on the…

Explicit construction of local observable algebras in quasi-Hermitian quantum theories is derived in both the tensor product model of locality and in models of free fermions. The latter construction is applied to several cases of a…

Partial solvability plays an important role in the context of statistical mechanics, since it has turned out to be closely related to the emergence of quantum many-body scar states, i.e., exceptional energy eigenstates which do not obey the…

We construct a family of hermitian potentials in 1D quantum mechanics that converges in the zero-range limit to a $\delta$ interaction with an energy-dependent coupling. It falls out of the standard four-parameter family of pointlike…

It is shown that the standard formulation of quantum mechanics in terms of Hermitian Hamiltonians is overly restrictive. A consistent physical theory of quantum mechanics can be built on a complex Hamiltonian that is not Hermitian but…

We define solvable quantum mechanical systems on a Hilbert space spanned by bipartite ribbon graphs with a fixed number of edges. The Hilbert space is also an associative algebra, where the product is derived from permutation group…

We propose a new, discretized model for the study of 3+1-dimensional canonical quantum gravity, based on the classical $SL(2,\C)$-connection formulation. The discretization takes place on a topological $N^3$- lattice with periodic boundary…
