In a thin multidimensional layer we consider a second order differential PT-symmetric operator. The operator is of rather general form and its coefficients are arbitrary functions depending both on slow and fast variables. The PT-symmetry…
We investigate the spectrum of a soft quantum waveguide in two dimensions of the generalized `bookcover' shape, that is, Schr\"odinger operator with the potential in the form of a ditch consisting of a finite curved part and straight…
We prove that the spectrum of a certain PT-symmetric periodic problem is purely real. Our results extend to a larger class of potentials those recently found by Brian Davies [math.SP/0702122] and John Weir [arXiv:0711.1371].
We study the Non-Hermitian quantum mechanics for the discrete system. This paper gives an exact analytic single-particle solution for an $N$-site tight-binding chain with two conjugated imaginary potentials $\pm i\gamma $ at two end sites,…
The original Calogero and Sutherland models describe N quantum particles on the line interacting pairwise through an inverse square and an inverse sinus-square potential. They are well known to be integrable and solvable. Here we extend the…
The two dimensional set of canonical relations giving rise to minimal uncertainties previously constructed from a q-deformed oscillator algebra is further investigated. We provide a representation for this algebra in terms of a flat…
One of the difficulties associated with the scattering problems arising in connection with integrable systems is that they are frequently non-self-adjoint, making it difficult to determine where the spectrum lies. In this paper, we consider…
The real spectrum of bound states produced by PT-symmetric Hamiltonians usually suffers breakup at a critical value of the strength of gain-loss terms, i.e., imaginary part of the complex potential. On the other hand, it is known that the…
This article is devoted to the spectral analysis of the electro-magnetic Schr\"odinger operator on the Euclidean plane. In the semiclassical limit, we derive a pseudo-differential effective operator that allows us to describe the spectrum…

Multi-dimensional complex optical potentials with partial parity-time (PT) symmetry are proposed. The usual PT symmetry requires that the potential is invariant under complex conjugation and simultaneous reflection in all spatial…
We show that the eigenvectors of the PT-symmetric imaginary cubic oscillator are complete, but do not form a Riesz basis. This results in the existence of a bounded metric operator having intrinsic singularity reflected in the inevitable…
A new proof is given for why the non-Hermitian, PT-Invariant cubic oscillator with imaginary coupling has real eigenvalues. The proof consists of two steps. In the first step, it is shown that for many PT-Invariant Hamiltonians, one can…
In this paper we study an interacting two-particle system on the positive half-line. We focus on spectral properties of the Hamiltonian for a large class of two-particle potentials. We characterize the essential spectrum and prove, as a…
In this paper we express the eigenvalues of anti-heptadiagonal persymmetric Hankel matrices as the zeros of explicit polynomials giving also a representation of its eigenvectors. We present also an expression depending on localizable…
We consider the discrete spectrum of the two-dimensional Hamiltonian $H=H_0+V$, where $H_0$ is a Schr\"odinger operator with a non-constant magnetic field $B$ that depends only on one of the spatial variables, and $V$ is an electric…
We consider a two-parameter non hermitean quantum-mechanical hamiltonian that is invariant under the combined effects of parity and time reversal transformation. Numerical investigation shows that for some values of the potential parameters…

Self-interacting scalar quantum field theories possessing $PT$-symmetry are physically admissible since their energy spectrum is real and bounded below. However, models with $PT$-invariant potentials can have complex actions in general and…
We construct PT-symmetric quantum mechanical models with an O(N)-symmetric interaction term of the form $-g(\vec{x}^{2})^{2}/N$. Using functional integral methods, we find the equivalent Hermitian model, which has several unusual features.…
