We derive a continuity equation to study transport properties in a $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric tight-binding chain with gain and loss in symmetric configurations. This allows us to identify the density fluxes in the system, and to define a…
We study the spectrum, eigenstates and transport properties of a simple $\mathcal{P}\mathcal{T}$-symmetric model consisting in a finite, complex, square well potential with a delta potential at the origin. We show that as the strength of…
We study spectral and transport properties of one-dimensional tight-binding $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric chains with alternating couplings. Based on the transfer matrix method, we have analytically developed the expressions for the transmission…
We study the transport and spectral properties of a non-Hermitian one-dimensional disordered lattice, the diagonal matrix elements of which are random complex variables taking both positive (loss) and negative (gain) imaginary values: Their…
We describe one-dimensional stationary scattering of a two-component wave field by a non-Hermitian matrix potential which features odd-$PT$ symmetry, i.e., symmetry with $(PT)^2=-1$. The scattering is characterized by a $4\times 4$ transfer…
We investigate the properties of PT-symmetric tight-binding models by considering both bounded and unbounded models. For the bounded case, we obtain closed form expressions for the corresponding energy spectra and we analyze the structure…
We investigate the spectral properties and dynamical features of a time-periodic PT-symmetric Hamiltonian on a one-dimensional tight-binding lattice. It is shown that a high-frequency modulation can drive the system under a transition…
We study transport properties in boundary-driven asymmetric quantum spin chains given by $\mathit{XXZ}$ and $\mathit{XXX}$ Heisenberg models. Our approach exploits symmetry transformations in the Lindblad master equation associated to the…
We consider one-dimensional asymmetric exclusion processes with a simple attractive interaction, where the distance between consecutive particles is not allowed to exceed a certain limit and investigate the consequences of this coupling on…
We study the properties of a parity- and time-reversal- (PT) symmetric tight-binding chain of size N with position-dependent hopping amplitude. In contrast to the fragile PT-symmetric phase of a chain with constant hopping and imaginary…
We suggest a general ansatz for the energy-eigenstates when a complex one-dimensional PT-symmetric potential possesses real discrete spectrum. Several interesting features of PT-symmetric quantum mechanics have been brought out using this…
New insights into transport properties of nanostructures with a linear dispersion along one direction and a quadratic dispersion along another are obtained by analysing their spectral stability properties under small perturbations.…
We perform a numerical study of transport properties of a one-dimensional chain with couplings decaying as an inverse power $r^{-(1+\sigma)}$ of the intersite distance $r$ and open boundary conditions, interacting with two heat reservoirs.…
The spectral landscape and the transport property of a translationally invariant network with side-coupled quantum dots are demonstrated within the tight-binding framework. For periodic environment band structure is demonstrated…
We study transport properties of an array created by alternating $(a,b)$ layers with balanced loss/gain characterized by the key parameter $\gamma$. It is shown that for non-equal widths of $(a,b)$ layers, i.e., when the corresponding…
Recently [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 106}, 093902 (2011)] it has been shown that $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric scattering systems with balanced gain and loss, undergo a transition from $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric scattering eigenstates, which are norm…
We studied the critical dynamics of spectral singularities. The system investigated is a coupled resonator array with a side-coupled loss (gain) resonator. For a gain resonator, the system acts as a wave emitter at spectral singularities.…
We demonstrate mesoscopic transport through quantum states in quasi-1D lattices maintaining the combination of parity and time-reversal symmetries by controlling energy gain and loss. We investigate the phase diagram of the non-Hermitian…
We investigate spectral properties of quantum graphs in the form of a periodic chain of rings with a connecting link between each adjacent pair, assuming that wave functions at the vertices are matched through conditions manifestly…
We discuss of a ring-shaped soft quantum wire modeled by $\delta$ interaction supported by the ring of a generally nonconstant coupling strength. We derive condition which determines the discrete spectrum of such systems, and analyze the…
