The static and dynamical properties of a one-dimensional quantum system described by a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian of the so-called Hatano-Nelson type; a tight-binding model with asymmetric (or non-reciprocal) hopping, are studied. The static…
A macroscopic effect can be induced by a local non-Hermitian term in a many-body system, when it manifests simultaneously level coalescence of a full real degeneracy spectrum, leading to exceptional spectrum. In this paper, we propose a…

We study how unique features of non-Hermitian lattice systems can be harnessed to improve Hamiltonian parameter estimation in a fully quantum setting. While the so-called non-Hermitian skin effect does not provide any distinct advantage,…
Complex potential and non-Hermitian hopping amplitude are building blocks of a non-Hermitian quantum network. Appropriate configuration, such as PT-symmetric distribution, can lead to the full real spectrum. To investigate the underlying…
We study a non-interacting quantum particle, moving on a one-dimensional lattice, which is subjected to repetitive measurements. We investigate the consequence when such motion is interrupted and restarted from the same initial…
The spectra of particles in disordered lattices can either be completely extended or localized or can be intermediate which hosts both the localized and extended states separated from each other. In this work, however, we show that in the…

Generally, the local interactions in a many-body quantum spin system on a lattice do not commute with each other. Consequently, the Hamiltonian of a local region will generally not commute with that of the entire system, and so the two…
The asymptotic behavior of the integrated density of states for a randomly perturbed lattice at the infimum of the spectrum is investigated. The leading term is determined when the decay of the single site potential is slow. The leading…
The Hartman effect refers to the rather paradoxical result that the time spent by a quantum mechanical particle or a photon to tunnel through an opaque potential barrier becomes independent of barrier width for long barriers. Such an…
We study localization and delocalization in a class of non-hermitean Hamiltonians inspired by the problem of vortex pinning in superconductors. We show how to take into account multiple scattering. We also obtain some bounds on the complex…
Quantum physics can be extended into the complex domain by considering non-Hermitian Hamiltonians that are $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric. These exhibit exceptional points (EPs) where the eigenspectrum changes from purely real to purely imaginary…
