We study a class of PT-symmetric semiclassical Schr\"odinger operators, which are perturbations of a selfadjoint one. Here, we treat the case where the unperturbed operator has a double-well potential. In the simple well case, two of the…

For a class of PT-symmetric operators with small random perturbations, the eigenvalues obey Weyl asymptotics with probability close to 1. Consequently, when the principal symbol is non-real, there are many non-real eigenvalues.

Criteria are formulated both for the existence and for the non-existence of complex eigenvalues for a class of non self-adjoint operators in Hilbert space invarariant under a particular discrete symmetry. Applications to the PT-symmetric…

Let $H$ be any $\PT$ symmetric Schr\"odinger operator of the type $ -\hbar^2\Delta+(x_1^2+...+x_d^2)+igW(x_1,...,x_d)$ on $L^2(\R^d)$, where $W$ is any odd homogeneous polynomial and $g\in\R$. It is proved that $\P H$ is self-adjoint and…

Many physical systems can be described by nonlinear eigenvalues and bifurcation problems with a linear part that is non-selfadjoint e.g. due to the presence of loss and gain. The balance of these effects is reflected in an antilinear…
