PTEP SPECIAL SECTIONA Quantum Description of Physical Systems with Non-real Energies
2021-7-19
While quantum systems are traditionally described by Hermitian Hamiltonians, the formalism is extendable to a non-Hermitian description for systems that are dissipative or obey parity-time symmetry.Electron states in condensed matter
