Non-hermitian physics

Y Ashida, Z Gong, M Ueda - Advances in Physics, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and
quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …

New topological invariants in non-Hermitian systems

A Ghatak, T Das - Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
Both theoretical and experimental studies of topological phases in non-Hermitian systems
have made a remarkable progress in the last few years of research. In this article, we review …

Dynamical quantum phase transitions in non-Hermitian lattices

L Zhou, Q Wang, H Wang, J Gong - Physical Review A, 2018 - APS
In closed quantum systems, dynamical phase transitions are identified by the nonanalytic
behavior of the return probability as a function of time. In this work, we study the nonunitary …

Unitary quantum evolution for time-dependent quasi-Hermitian systems with nonobservable Hamiltonians

A Fring, MHY Moussa - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
It has been argued that it is incompatible to maintain unitary time evolution for time-
dependent non-Hermitian Hamiltonians when the metric operator is explicitly time …

Non-Hermitian Swanson model with a time-dependent metric

A Fring, MHY Moussa - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
We provide further nontrivial solutions to the recently proposed time-dependent Dyson and
quasi-Hermiticity relation. Here, we solve them for the generalized version of the non …

Shortcuts to adiabaticity in driven open quantum systems: Balanced gain and loss and non-Markovian evolution

S Alipour, A Chenu, AT Rezakhani, A del Campo - Quantum, 2020 - quantum-journal.org
A universal scheme is introduced to speed up the dynamics of a driven open quantum
system along a prescribed trajectory of interest. This framework generalizes counterdiabatic …

Complex Berry phase and imperfect non-Hermitian phase transitions

S Longhi, L Feng - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
In many classical and quantum systems described by an effective non-Hermitian
Hamiltonian, spectral phase transitions, from an entirely real-energy spectrum to a complex …

Non-hermitian quantum thermodynamics

B Gardas, S Deffner, A Saxena - Scientific reports, 2016 - nature.com
Thermodynamics is the phenomenological theory of heat and work. Here we analyze to
what extent quantum thermodynamic relations are immune to the underlying mathematical …

Quantum geometric tensor in -symmetric quantum mechanics

DJ Zhang, Q Wang, J Gong - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
A series of geometric concepts are formulated for PT-symmetric quantum mechanics and
they are further unified into one entity, ie, an extended quantum geometric tensor (QGT). The …

Pseudo-invariants theory and real phases for systems with non-Hermitian time-dependent Hamiltonians

M Maamache, O Kaltoum Djeghiour, N Mana… - The European Physical …, 2017 - Springer
In this paper, the Lewis-Riesenfeld invariant theory is generalized for the study of systems
with non-Hermitian time-dependent Hamiltonians. Explicitly time-dependent pseudo …
