We apply the recently introduced method of hermitization to study in the large $N$ limit non-hermitean random matrices that are drawn from a large class of circularly symmetric non-Gaussian probability distributions, thus extending the…
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…
Random Hermitian matrices are used to model complex systems without time-reversal invariance. Adding an external source to the model can have the effect of shifting some of the matrix eigenvalues, which corresponds to shifting some of the…

We study Hermitian random matrix models with an external source matrix which has equispaced eigenvalues, and with an external field such that the limiting mean density of eigenvalues is supported on a single interval as the dimension tends…
A diagonalizable non-Hermitian Hamiltonian having a real spectrum may be used to define a unitary quantum system, if one modifies the inner product of the Hilbert space properly. We give a comprehensive and essentially self-contained review…

We prove that any symmetric Hamiltonian that is a quadratic function of the coordinates and momenta has a pseudo-Hermitian adjoint or regular matrix representation. The eigenvalues of the latter matrix are the natural frequencies of the…
Non-Hermitian matrices $H\in M_2(\mathbb{C})$ satisfying the relation $ H^{\dag}G = GH $, for invertible and singular Hermitian matrices $G$ have been studied. The matrices $H$ corresponding to invertible $G$ are known in the literature as…
In this paper we study para-Hermitian rational matrices and the associated structured rational eigenvalue problem (REP). Para-Hermitian rational matrices are square rational matrices that are Hermitian for all $z$ on the unit circle that…
This paper builds on our earlier proposal for construction of a positive inner product for pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians and we give several examples to clarify our method. We show through the example of the harmonic oscillator how our…
A unified theory of orthogonal polynomials of a discrete variable is presented through the eigenvalue problem of hermitian matrices of finite or infinite dimensions. It can be considered as a matrix version of exactly solvable Schr\"odinger…
