The $mathcal{PT}-$symmetric quantum mechanical $V=ix^3$ model over the real line, $xinmathbb{R}$, is infrared (IR) truncated and considered as Sturm-Liouville problem over a finite interval $xinleft[-L,Lright]subsetmathbb{R}$. Via WKB and Stokes graph analysis, the location of the complex spectral branches of the $V=ix^3$ model and those of more general $V=-(ix)^{2n+1}$ models over $xinleft[-L,Lright]subsetmathbb{R}$ are obtained. The corresponding eigenvalues are mapped onto $L-$invariant asymptotic spectral scaling graphs $mathcal{R}subset mathbb{C}$. These scaling graphs are geometrically invariant and cutoff-independent so that the IR limit $Lto infty $ can be formally taken. Moreover, an increasing $L$ can be associated with an $mathcal{R}-$constrained spectral UV$to$IR renormalization group flow on $mathcal{R}$. The existence of a scale-invariant $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking region on each of these graphs allows to conclude that the unbounded eigenvalue sequence of the $ix^3$ Hamiltonian over $xinmathbb{R}$ can be considered as tending toward a mapped version of such a $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking region at spectral infinity. This provides a simple heuristic explanation for the specific eigenfunction properties described in the literature so far and clear complementary evidence that the $mathcal{PT}-$symmetric $V=-(ix)^{2n+1}$ models over the real line $xinmathbb{R}$ are not equivalent to Hermitian models, but that they rather form a separate model class with purely real spectra. Our findings allow us to hypothesize a possible physical interpretation of the non-Rieszian mode behavior as a related mode condensation process.

The work contains a detailed study of the scaling limit of a certain critical, integrable inhomogeneous six-vertex model subject to twisted boundary conditions. It is based on a numerical analysis of the Bethe ansatz equations as well as the powerful analytic technique of the ODE/IQFT correspondence. The results indicate that the critical behaviour of the lattice system is described by the gauged ${rm SL}(2)$ WZW model with certain boundary and reality conditions imposed on the fields. Our proposal revises and extends the conjectured relation between the lattice system and the Euclidean black hole non-linear sigma model that was made in the 2011 paper of Ikhlef, Jacobsen and Saleur.
We theoretically study the dynamics of typical optomechanical systems, consisting of a passive optical mode and an active mechanical mode, in the $mathcal{PT}$- and broken-$mathcal{PT}$-symmetric regimes. By fully analytical treatments for the dynamics of the average displacement and particle numbers, we reveal the phase diagram under different conditions and the various regimes of both $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry and stability of the system. We find that by appropriately tuning either mechanical gain or optomechanical coupling, both phase transitions of the $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry and stability of the system can be flexibly controlled. As a result, the dynamical behaviors of the average displacement, photons, and phonons are radically changed in different regimes. Our study shows that $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric optomechanical devices can serve as a powerful tool for the manipulation of mechanical motion, photons, and phonons.
Over the past decade, non-Hermitian, $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonians have been investigated as candidates for both, a fundamental, unitary, quantum theory, and open systems with a non-unitary time evolution. In this paper, we investigate the implications of the former approach in the context of the latter. Motivated by the invariance of the $mathcal{PT}$ (inner) product under time evolution, we discuss the dynamics of wave-function phases in a wide range of $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric lattice models. In particular, we numerically show that, starting with a random initial state, a universal, gain-site location dependent locking between wave function phases at adjacent sites occurs in the $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry broken region. Our results pave the way towards understanding the physically observable implications of time-invariants in the non-unitary dynamics produced by $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonians.
We find the asymptotic behaviors of Toeplitz determinants with symbols which are a sum of two contributions: one analytical and non-zero function in an annulus around the unit circle, and the other proportional to a Dirac delta function. The formulas are found by using the Wiener-Hopf procedure. The determinants of this type are found in computing the spin-correlation functions in low-lying excited states of some integrable models, where the delta function represents a peak at the momentum of the excitation. As a concrete example of applications of our results, using the derived asymptotic formulas we compute the spin-correlation functions in the lowest energy band of the frustrated quantum XY chain in zero field, and the ground state magnetization.

Based on the results published recently [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50, 065201 (2017)], the universal finite-size contributions to the free energy of the square lattice Ising model on the $Ltimes M$ rectangle, with open boundary conditions in both directions, are calculated exactly in the finite-size scaling limit $L,Mtoinfty$, $Tto T_mathrm{c}$, with fixed temperature scaling variable $xpropto(T/T_mathrm{c}-1)M$ and fixed aspect ratio $rhopropto L/M$. We derive exponentially fast converging series for the related Casimir potential and Casimir force scaling functions. At the critical point $T=T_mathrm{c}$ we confirm predictions from conformal field theory by Cardy & Peschel [Nucl. Phys. B 300, 377 (1988)] and by Kleban & Vassileva [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 24, 3407 (1991)]. The presence of corners and the related corner free energy has dramatic impact on the Casimir scaling functions and leads to a logarithmic divergence of the Casimir potential scaling function at criticality.
