Consider the operator $ T=-{d^2dx^2}+x^2+q(x)$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$, where real functions $q$, $q'$ and $\int_0^xq(s)ds$ are bounded. In particular, $q$ is periodic or almost periodic. The spectrum of $T$ is purely discrete and consists of…

By considering the most general metric which can occur on a contractable two dimensional symplectic manifold, we find the most general Hamiltonians on a two dimensional phase space to which equivariant localization formulas for the…

We introduce an abstract class of bosonic QFT Hamiltonians and study their spectral and scattering theories. These Hamiltonians are of the form $H=\d\G(\omega)+ V$ acting on the bosonic Fock space $\G(\ch)$, where $\omega$ is a massive…

In addition to the well known case of spherical coordinates the hydrogen atom separates in three further coordinate systems. Separating in a particular coordinate system defines a system of three commuting operators. We show that the joint…

A quantum particle on a circle in a quadratic potential exhibits a spectrum that is not harmonic, despite having all algebraic properties of the quantum harmonic oscillator. This raises the question where the usual algebraic argument --…

We show that and how the Coulomb potential can be regularized and solved exactly at the imaginary couplings. The new spectrum of energies is real and bounded as expected, but its explicit form proves totally different from the usual…

Searching for non-Hermitian (parity-time)$\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonians \cite{bender} with real spectra has been acquiring much interest for fourteen years. In this article, we have introduced a $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetric non-Hermitian…

We in this paper study the hermiticity of Hamiltonian and energy spectrum for the SU(1; 1) systems. The Hermitian Hamiltonian can possess imaginary eigenvalues in contrast with the common belief that hermiticity is a suffcient condition for…

This paper explains the systematics of the generation of families of spectra for the PT-symmetric quantum-mechanical Hamiltonians $H=p^2+x^2(ix)^\epsilon$, $H=p^2+(x^2)^\delta$, and $H=p^2-(x^2)^\mu$. In addition, it contrasts the results…

We introduce the notion of pseudo-Hermiticity and show that every Hamiltonian with a real spectrum is pseudo-Hermitian. We point out that all the PT-symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonians studied in the literature belong to the class of…

Consider in $L^2(\R)$ the \Sc operator family $H(g):=-d^2_x+V_g(x)$ depending on the real parameter $g$, where $V_g(x)$ is a complex-valued but $PT$ symmetric periodic potential. An explicit condition on $V$ is obtained which ensures that…
