Classes of non-Hermitian operators with real eigenvalues
Classes of non-Hermitian operators that have only real eigenvalues are presented. Such operators appear in quantum mechanics and are expressed in terms of the generators of the Weyl-Heisenberg algebra. For each non-Hermitian operator A, a Hermitian involutive operator Ĵ such that A is Ĵ-Hermitian, that is, ĴA = AĴ , is found. Moreover, we construct a positive definite Hermitian Q such that A is...

متن کاملNon Hermitian Operators with Real Spectrum in Quantum Mechanics
Examples are given of non-Hermitian Hamiltonian operators which have a real spectrum. Some of the investigated operators are expressed in terms of the generators of the Weil-Heisenberg algebra. It is argued that the existence of an involutive operator Ĵ which renders the Hamiltonian Ĵ-Hermitian leads to the unambiguous definition of an associated positive definite norm allowing for the standard...
متن کاملNon-Hermitian Hamiltonians with real and complex eigenvalues in a Lie-algebraic framework
We show that complex Lie algebras (in particular sl(2,C)) provide us with an elegant method for studying the transition from real to complex eigenvalues of a class of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians: complexified Scarf II, generalized Pöschl-Teller, and Morse. The characterizations of these Hamiltonians under the so-called pseudoHermiticity are also discussed. PACS: 02.20.Sv; 03.65.Fd; 03.65.Ge
متن کاملNon-Hermitian Hamiltonians with real and complex eigenvalues: An sl(2,C) approach
Potential algebras are extended from Hermitian to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and shown to provide an elegant method for studying the transition from real to complex eigenvalues for a class of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians associated with the complex Lie algebra A1.
