We propose a scheme to deal with certain time-dependent non-Hermitian Hamiltonian operators $H(t)$ that generate a real phase in their time-evolution. This involves the use of invariant operators $I_{PH}(t)$ that are pseudo-Hermitian with…
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…
We study the path integral solution of a system of particle moving in certain class of PT symmetric non-Hermitian and non-central potential. The Hamil- tonian of the system is converted to a separable Hamiltonian of Liouville type in…
$\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry --- invariance with respect to combined space reflection $\mathcal{P}$ and time reversal $\mathcal{T}$ --- provides a weaker condition than (Dirac) Hermiticity for ensuring a real energy spectrum of a general…
A non-hermitian deformation of the one-dimensional transverse Ising model is shown to have the property of quasi-hermiticity. The transverse Ising chain is obtained from the starting non-hermitian Hamiltonian through a similarity…
Representations of the rotation group may be formulated in second-quantised language via Schwinger's transcription of angular momentum states onto states of an effective two-dimensional oscillator. In the case of the molecular asymmetric…

A class of spherically symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and their \eta-weak-pseudo-Hermiticity generators are presented. An operators-based procedure is introduced so that the results for the 1D Schrodinger Hamiltonian may very well be…
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…
In this paper, a non-trivial system governed by a continuum PT-symmetric Hamiltonian is discussed. We show that this Hamiltonian is iso-spectral to the simple harmonic oscillator. We find its eigenfunctions and the path in the complex plane…
Recently, open systems with balanced, spatially separated loss and gain have been realized and studied using non-Hermitian Hamiltonians that are invariant under the combined parity and time-reversal ($\mathcal{PT}$) operations. Here, we…
This paper examines the features of a generalized position-dependent mass Hamiltonian in a supersymmetric framework in which the constraints of pseudo-Hermiticity and CPT are naturally embedded. Different representations of the charge…
Non-hermiticity presents a vast newly opened territory that harbors new physics and applications such as lasing and sensing. However, only non-Hermitian systems with real eigenenergies are stable, and great efforts have been devoted in…
A set of r non-Hermitian oscillator Hamiltonians in r dimensions is shown to be simultaneously diagonalizable. Their spectra is real and the common eigenstates are expressed in terms of multiple Charlier polynomials. An algebraic…
The direct observability of coordinates x is often lost in PT-symmetric quantum theories. A manifestly non-local Hilbert-space metric $\Theta$ enters the double-integral normalization of wave functions $\psi(x)$ there. In the context of…
Many manifestly non-Hermitian Hamiltonians (typically, PT-symmetric complex anharmonic oscillators) possess a strictly real, "physical" bound-state spectrum. This means that they are (quasi-)Hermitian with respect to a suitable non-standard…
We consider the Landau Hamiltonian $H_0$, self-adjoint in $L^2({\mathbb R^2})$, whose spectrum consists of an arithmetic progression of infinitely degenerate positive eigenvalues $\Lambda_q$, $q \in {\mathbb Z}_+$. We perturb $H_0$ by a…
Recently Scholtz and Geyer proposed a very efficient method to compute metric operators for non-Hermitian Hamiltonians from Moyal products. We develop these ideas further and suggest to use a more symmetrical definition for the Moyal…
Despite its common use in quantum theory, the mathematical requirement of Dirac Hermiticity of a Hamiltonian is sufficient to guarantee the reality of energy eigenvalues but not necessary. By establishing three theorems, this paper gives…
