Open classical and quantum systems have attracted great interest in the past two decades. These include systems described by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians with parity-time $(\mathcal{PT})$ symmetry that are best understood as systems with…
In this paper we use our recently generalized black hole entropy formula to propose a quantum version of the Friedmann equations. In particular, starting from the differential version of the first law of thermodynamics, we are able to find…
We propose that the real spectrum and the orthogonality of the states for several known complex potentials of both types, PT-symmetric and non-PT-symmetric can be understood in terms of currently proposed $\eta$-pseudo-Hermiticity…
We deal with the presence of magnetic monopoles in a non Abelian model that generalizes the standard 't~Hooft-Polyakov model in three spatial dimensions. We investigate the energy density of the static and spherically symmetric solutions to…
This study investigates pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics, where the Hamiltonian satisfies a modified Hermiticity condition. We extend the uncertainty relation for such systems, demonstrating its equivalence to the standard Hermitian case…
In most introductory courses on quantum mechanics one is taught that the Hamiltonian operator must be Hermitian in order that the energy levels be real and that the theory be unitary (probability conserving). To express the Hermiticity of a…
We consider a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian in order to effectively describe a two-level system coupled to a generic dissipative environment. The total Hamiltonian of the model is obtained by adding a general anti-Hermitian part, depending on…
We study a class of Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equations in the space of probability measures. In the first part of this paper, we prove comparison principles (implying uniqueness) for this class. In the second part, we establish…
By means of expressing volumes in phase space in terms of traces of quantum operators, a relationship between the Hamiltonian poles and the Lyapunov exponents in a non Hermitian quantum dynamics, is presented. We illustrate the formalism by…
We highlight the conceptual issues that arise when one applies the quasi-Hermitian framework to analyze scattering from localized non-Hermitian potentials, in particular complex square-wells or delta-functions. When treated in the framework…
The harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian, when augmented by a non-Hermitian $\cal{PT}$-symmetric part, can be transformed into a Hermitian Hamiltonian. This is achieved by introducing a metric which, in general, renders other observables such as…
In the Hamiltonian formulation of General Relativity the energy associated to an asymptotically flat space-time with metric $g_{\mu\nu}$ is related to the Hamiltonian $H_{GR}$ by $E=H_{GR}[g_{\mu\nu}]-H_{\rm GR}[\eta_{\mu\nu}]$, where the…
The total Hamiltonian in general relativity, which involves the first class Hamiltonian and momentum constraints, weakly vanishes. However, when the action is expanded around a classical solution as in the case of a single scalar field…
The 'tHooft-Polyakov monopole is treated as constrained system using the Hamilton-Jacobi method. The set of the Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equations and the equations of motion are obtained. The quantization of the system is also…
A finite dimensional system with a quadratic Hamiltonian constraint is Dirac quantized in holomorphic, antiholomorphic and mixed representations. A unique inner product is found by imposing Hermitian conjugacy relations on an operator…
This is a response to a recently reported comment [1] on paper [J. Math. Phys.59, 082105 (2018)] regarding the quantization of damped harmonic oscillator using a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian with real energy eigenvalues. We assert here that…
This paper generalizes earlier work on Hamiltonian boundary terms by omitting the requirement that the spacelike hypersurfaces $\Sigma_t$ intersect the timelike boundary $\cal B$ orthogonally. The expressions for the action and Hamiltonian…
We study a non-Hermitian generalization of quantum systems in which an imaginary vector potential is added to the momentum operator. In the tight-binding approximation, we make the hopping energy asymmetric in the Hermitian Hamiltonian. In…
We consider the gravitational collapse of self-gravitating spherical dust cloud in the Hamiltonian formalism. We address both homogeneous and inhomogeneous cases. Our novel derivation of the Hamiltonian of the system is based on the…
Integrals of motion of a Hamiltonian system need not be commutative. The classical Mishchenko-Fomenko theorem enables one to quantize a noncommutative completely integrable Hamiltonian system around its invariant submanifold as an abelian…
