The phase space of $N$ damped linear oscillators is endowed with a bilinear map under which the evolution operator is symmetric. This analog of self-adjointness allows properties familiar from conservative systems to be recovered, e.g.,…

Dissipative systems can be described in terms of non-hermitian hamiltonians H, whose left eigenvectors f^j and right eigenvectors f_j form a bi-orthogonal system. Bi-orthogonal systems could suffer from two difficulties. (a) If the…

Using as a prototype example the harmonic oscillator we show how losing self-adjointness of the hamiltonian $H$ changes drastically the related functional structure. In particular, we show that even a small deviation from strict…
The almost periodic eigenvalue problem described by the Harper equation is connected to other classes of quasiperiodic behaviour: the dissipative dynamics on critical invariant tori and quasiperiodically driven maps. Firstly, the strong…
We study the dynamics of a damped harmonic oscillator in the presence of a retarded potential with state-dependent time-delayed feedback. In the limit of small time-delays, we show that the oscillator is equivalent to a Li\'enard system.…
Exceptional points (EPs) represent non-Hermitian degeneracies where eigenvalues and eigenvectors coalesce, giving rise to enhanced sensitivity and critically damped dynamics. We demonstrate that when an EP coincides with a dissipative phase…

Correlation functions $C(t) \sim <\phi(t)\phi(0)>$ in ohmically damped systems such as coupled harmonic oscillators or optical resonators can be expressed as a single sum over modes $j$ (which are not power-orthogonal), with each term…

At the exceptional point where two eigenstates coalesce in open quantum systems, the usual diagonalization scheme breaks down and the Hamiltonian can only be reduced to Jordan block form. Most of the studies on the exceptional point…
