We develop a systematic approach to construct novel completely solvable rational potentials. Second-order supersymmetric quantum mechanics dictates the latter to be isospectral to some well-studied quantum systems. $\cal PT$ symmetry may…
Non-Hermitian but ${\cal PT}-$symmetric quantum system of an $N-$plet of bosons described by the three-parametric Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian $H(\gamma,v,c)$ is picked up, in its special exceptional-point limit $c \to 0$ and $\gamma \to v$, as…
We propose an elegant formulation of parafermionic algebra and parasupersymmetry of arbitrary order in quantum many-body systems without recourse to any specific matrix representation of parafermionic operators and any kind of deformed…
We show that trapped ions can be used to simulate a highly symmetrical Hamiltonian with eingenstates naturally protected against local sources of decoherence. This Hamiltonian involves long range coupling between particles and provides a…

Understanding collective phenomena calls for tractable descriptions of correlations in assemblies of strongly interacting constituents. Capturing the essence of their self-consistency is central. The parquet theory admits a maximum level of…
Quantum bound-state energies are assumed generated by PT-symmetric Hamiltonians H where P is, typically, parity. It is known that their spectrum only remains real and observable (i.e., in the language of physics, the PT-symmetry remains…
The Hermiticity axiom of quantum mechanics guarantees that the energy spectrum is real and the time evolution is unitary (probability-preserving). Nevertheless, non-Hermitian but $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonians may also have real…
More than 15 years ago, a new approach to quantum mechanics was suggested, in which Hermiticity of the Hamiltonian was to be replaced by invariance under a discrete symmetry, the product of parity and time-reversal symmetry, $\mathcal{PT}$.…
Large families of Hamiltonians that are non-Hermitian in the conventional sense have been found to have all eigenvalues real, a fact attributed to an unbroken PT symmetry. The corresponding quantum theories possess an unconventional scalar…
We briefly explain some simple arguments based on pseudo Hermiticity, supersymmetry and PT-symmetry which explain the reality of the spectrum of some non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. Subsequently we employ PT-symmetry as a guiding principle to…
Within CPT-symmetric quantum mechanics the most elementary differential form of the charge operator C is assumed. A closed-form integrability of the related coupled differential self-consistency conditions and a natural embedding of the…
We construct high order symmetric volume-preserving methods for the relativistic dynamics of a charged particle by the splitting technique with processing. Via expanding the phase space to include time $t$, we give a more general…
The Hamiltonian for a PT-symmetric chain of coupled oscillators is constructed. It is shown that if the loss-gain parameter $\gamma$ is uniform for all oscillators, then as the number of oscillators increases, the region of unbroken…
We describe a method that allows for a practical application of the theory of pseudo-Hermitian operators to PT-symmetric systems defined on a complex contour. We apply this method to study the Hamiltonians $H=p^2+x^2(ix)^\nu$ with…
Within the framework of the recently proposed formalism using non-hermitean Hamiltonians constrained merely by their PT invariance we describe a new exactly solvable family of the harmonic-oscillator-like potentials with non-equidistant…
The energy spectra of two different quantum systems are paired through supersymmetric algorithms. One of the systems is Hermitian and the other is characterized by a complex-valued potential, both of them with only real eigenvalues in their…
Topological ordered states are exotic quantum states of matter that defy the usual description in terms of symmetry breaking and local order parameters. The type or order they feature is of non-local, topological nature, and it allows such…

We demonstrate that a pair consisting of a second-order homogeneous Hamiltonian structure in $N$ components and its associated system of conservation laws is in bijective correspondence with an alternating three-form on a $N+2$-dimensional…
