从反超对称哈密顿量平方根实现 $\mathcal{PT}$ 类相变
摘要
我们提出一种通用框架,用于在不施加显式平衡-时间()对称性的前提下实现 类相变。该方法基于将反超对称伴侣哈密顿量平方根构成哈密顿量,常数位移移。这种表述自然导致具有平衡增益与损耗的双体动力学,可包含非互易耦合。 resulting systems exhibit entirely real spectra over a finite parameter range precisely when the corresponding passive Hamiltonian lacks a zero mode. As the non-Hermitian parameter representing gain and loss increases, the spectrum undergoes controlled real-to-complex transitions at second-order exceptional points. We demonstrate the versatility of this framework through several examples, including well-known models such as the Hatano--Nelson (HN) and complex Su--Schrieffer--Heeger (cSSH) lattices. Extending the formalism to -commuting matrices further enables the systematic realization of higher-order exceptional points in systems with unidirectional couplings. Overall, this work uncovers new links between non-Hermitian physics and supersymmetry, offering a practical route to engineer photonic arrays with tunable spectral properties beyond what is achievable with explicit -symmetry.
