We present a set of necessary conditions for the existence of a biorthonormal basis composed of eigenvectors of non-Hermitian operators. As an illustration, we examine these conditions in the case of normal operators. We also provide a…
We refute the criticism expressed in a comment by P. Talkner and P. H\"anggi [Phys. Rev. E 102, 066101 (2020)] on our paper Phys. Rev. E 101, 050101(R) (2020). We first make clear that our paper is free of any technical mistakes. We then…
Update: A time-independent $n\times n$ PT-symmetric (and symmetric) Hamiltonian is diagonalizable since it has all distinct real eigenvalues and the resulting diagonal matrix is a real symmetric matrix. The diagonalization results an…
Let $T_n^d(A)$ denote a partial upper triangular operator matrix whose diagonal entries are given and the others unknown. In this article we have aim to find characterizations of (left,right) invertibility of $T_n^d(A)$ in terms of diagonal…
We study the diagonalizability of the Atkin $U$-operator acting on Drinfeld cusp forms for $\Gamma_1(t)$ and $\Gamma(t)$ using Teitelbaum's interpretation as harmonic cocycles. We prove $U$ is diagonalizable for small weights and explicitly…
In this report, we reply to a recent comment by Carl M. Bender, Gregorio Benincasa and Hugh F. Jones on our work 'New ansatz for metric operator calculation in pseudo-Hermitian field theory (Phys. Rev. D. 79, 107702 (2009)). In fact, they…
A recent paper by Bluemer et al. [cond-mat/0609758] again criticizes earlier QMC/DMFT results by Liebsch [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 70}, 165103 (2004)]. This criticism is shown to be unfounded.
We explain why the main conclusion of Bender et al, hep-th/0511229 [J. Phys. A 39 (2006) 1657] regarding the practical superiority of the non-Hermitian description of PT-symmetric quantum systems over their Hermitian description is not…
We study the diagonalizability of the Atkin $U_t$-operator acting on Drinfeld cusp forms for $\Gamma_1(t)$ and $\Gamma(t)$ using Teitelbaum's interpretation as harmonic cocycles. For small weights $k\leqslant 2q$, we prove $U_t$ is…
The spectral analysis of a non-Hermitian unbounded operator appearing in quantum physics is our main concern. The properties of such an operator are essentially different from those of Hermitian Hamiltonians, namely due to spectral…
In this paper, we extend Ando's theorem on paranormal operators, which states that if $ T \in \mathfrak{B}(\mathcal{H}) $ is a paranormal operator and there exists $ n \in \mathbb{N} $ such that $ T^n $ is normal, then $ T $ is normal. We…
We argue that the conclusion, `we cannot consider the Dirac approach as fundamental and undoubted', made in the paper by Shestakova (Class. Quantum Grav. 28 055009, 2011), is based upon an incomplete and flawed analysis of the simple model…
We study the physical content of the PT-symmetric complex extension of quantum mechanics as proposed in Bender et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 5243 (1998) and 89, 270401 (2002), and show that as a fundamental probabilistic physical theory it is…
A non-Hermitean operator does not necessarily have a complete set of eigenstates, contrary to a Hermitean one. An algorithm is presented which allows one to decide whether the eigenstates of a given PT-invariant operator on a…
This is my reply to Zalka and Brun's criticism of my recent paper on quantum optimization heuristics. Essentially, this criticism is shown to be utterly irrelevant.
We study the diagonalizability of the Atkin $U_t$-operator acting on Drinfeld cusp forms for $\Gamma_0(t)$: starting with the slopes of eigenvalues and then moving to the space of cusp forms for $\Gamma_1(t)$ to use Teitelbaum's…
A general strategy is provided to identify the most general metric for diagonalizable pseudo-Hermitian and anti-pseudo-Hermitian Hamilton operators represented by two-dimensional matrices. It is investigated how a permutation of the…
We demonstrate that the recent paper by Jana and Roy entitled ''Non-Hermitian quantum mechanics with minimal length uncertainty'' [SIGMA 5 (2009), 083, 7 pages, arXiv:0908.1755] contains various misconceptions. We compare with an analysis…
For a diagonalizable linear operator $H:\mathscr{H}\to\mathscr{H}$ acting in a separable Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$, i.e., an operator with a purely point spectrum, eigenvalues with finite algebraic multiplicities, and a set of…
The primary purpose of this paper is to show the existence of normal square and nth roots of some classes of bounded operators on Hilbert spaces. Two interesting simple results hold. Namely, under simple conditions we show that if any…
