We demonstrate that non-Hermitian Hamiltonian systems with spontaneously broken PT-symmetry and partially complex eigenvalue spectrum can be made meaningful in a quantum mechanical sense when introducing some explicit time-dependence into…

We show that the analogue of the geometric phase for non-Hermitian coupled waveguides with PT-symmetry and at least one periodically varying parameter can be purely imaginary, and will consequently result in the manifestation of an…

We examine the role discrete symmetries, time-reversal and mirror symmetries, play in the context of geophysical waves and instabilities. By looking at three special cases from the two-layer quasi-geostrophic model as well as developing a…

We show that and how point interactions offer one of the most suitable guides towards a quantitative analysis of properties of certain specific non-Hermitian (usually called PT-symmetric) quantum-mechanical systems. A double-well model is…

Over the last two decades, advances in fabrication have led to significant progress in creating patterned heterostructures that support either carriers, such as electrons or holes, with specific band structure or electromagnetic waves with…

Quantum physics can be extended into the complex domain by considering non-Hermitian Hamiltonians that are $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric. These exhibit exceptional points (EPs) where the eigenspectrum changes from purely real to purely imaginary…

We introduce two- and one-dimensional (2D and 1D) systems of two linearly-coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations (GPEs) with the cubic self-attraction and harmonic-oscillator (HO) trapping potential in each GPE. The system models a…

Nonreciprocal interactions break action-reaction symmetry in systems of interacting bodies. This process inevitably introduces non-Hermitian dynamics which with its hallmark signature called exceptional points (EPs) has been a subject of…

Non-orthogonal eigenstates are a fundamental feature of non-Hermitian systems and are accompanied by the emergence of nontrivial features. However, the platforms to explore non-Hermitian mode couplings mainly measure near-field effects, and…

We study scaling behavior and phase diagram of a PT-symmetric non-Hermitian Bose-Hubbard model. In the free interaction case, using both analytical and numerical approaches, the metric operator for many-particle is constructed. The derived…

Non-Hermitian systems with parity-time (PT) symmetric complex potentials can exhibit a phase transition when the degree of non-Hermiticity is increased. Two eigenstates coalesce at a transition point, which is known as the exceptional point…

The continuous advancements in ultrafast lasers, characterized by high pulse energy, great average power, and ultrashort pulse duration, have opened up new frontiers and applications in various fields such as high-energy-density science. In…

We investigate the nonlinear parity-time (PT) symmetric coupler from a dynamical perspective. As opposed to linear PT-coupler where the PT threshold dictates the evolutionary characteristics of optical power in the two waveguides, in a…

Despite its non-Hermitian nature, the transverse optical beam shift exhibits both real eigenvalues and non-orthogonal eigenstates. To explore this unexpected similarity to typical PT (parity-time)-symmetric systems, we first categorize the…

Non-Hermiticity in quantum Hamiltonians leads to nonunitary time evolution and possibly complex energy eigenvalues, which can lead to a rich phenomenology with no Hermitian counterpart. In this work, we study the dynamics of an exactly…

Topological edge states arise in parity-time ($\mathcal{PT}$)-symmetric non-unitary quantum dynamics but have so far only been discussed in the $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry-unbroken regime. Here we report the experimental detection of robust…

We propose a noncommutative version of the Euclidean Lie algebra $E_2$. Several types of non-Hermitian Hamiltonian systems expressed in terms of generic combinations of the generators of this algebra are investigated. Using the breakdown of…

We propose a scheme for enhanced sensing of weak anharmonicities based on a three-mode anti-parity-time (anti-PT) symmetric cavity-magnon-waveguide system. By tuning the optical gain to the active cavity mode, the linewidth suppression…

It is shown that the familiar two-stream instability is the result of spontaneous parity-time (PT)-symmetry breaking in a conservative system, and more importantly, explicit PT-symmetry breaking by viscosity can destabilize the system in…

We point out that PT-symmetric potentials $V_{PT}(x)$ having imaginary asymptotic saturation: $V_{PT}(x=\pm \infty) =\pm i V_1, V_1 \in \Re$ are devoid of scattering states and spectral singularity. We show the existence of real (positive…
