The subject of PT-symmetry and its areas of application have been blossoming over the past decade. Here, we consider a nonlinear Schr\"odinger model with a complex potential that can be tuned controllably away from being PT-symmetric, as it…

We prove quantitative bounds on the eigenvalues of non-selfadjoint unbounded operators obtained from selfadjoint operators by a perturbation that is relatively-Schatten. These bounds are applied to obtain new results on the distribution of…

Two alternative scenarios are shown possible in Quantum Mechanics working with non-Hermitian $PT-$symmetric form of observables. While, usually, people assume that $P$ is a self-adjoint indefinite metric in Hilbert space (and that their…

We study small, PT-symmetric perturbations of self-adjoint double-well Schr\"odinger operators in dimension $n\geq 1$. We prove that the eigenvalues stay real for a very small perturbation, then bifurcate to the complex plane as the…

The nonlinear Schroedinger model is a prototypical dispersive wave equation that features finite time blowup, either for supercritical exponents (for fixed dimension) or for supercritical dimensions (for fixed nonlinearity exponent). Upon…

A class of non-selfadjoint, $\PT$-symmetric operators is identified similar to a self-adjoint one, thus entailing the reality of the spectrum. The similarity transformation is explicitly constructed through the method of the quantum normal…

The Schr\"odinger equation with a $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric potential is used to model an optical structure consisting of an element with gain coupled to an element with loss. At low gain-loss amplitudes $\gamma$, raising the amplitude…

Bender et al. have developed PT-symmetric quantum theory as an extension of quantum theory to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We show that when this model has a local PT symmetry acting on composite systems it violates the non-signaling…

The spectrum of complex PT-symmetric potential, $V(x)=igx$, is known to be null. We enclose this potential in a hard-box: $V(|x| \ge 1) =\infty $ and in a soft-box: $V(|x|\ge 1)=0$. In the former case, we find real discrete spectrum and the…
