The optomechanical state transfer protocol provides effective, lossy, quantum beam-splitter-like dynamics where the strength of the coupling between the electromagnetic and mechanical modes is controlled by the optical steady-state amplitude. By restricting to a subspace with no losses, we argue that the transition from mode-hybridization in the strong coupling regime to the damped-dynamics in the weak coupling regime, is a signature of the passive parity-time ($mathcal{PT}$) symmetry breaking transition in the underlying non-Hermitian quantum dimer. We compare the dynamics generated by the quantum open system (Langevin or Lindblad) approach to that of the $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonian, to characterize the cases where the two are identical. Additionally, we numerically explore the evolution of separable and correlated number states at zero temperature as well as thermal initial state evolution at room temperature. Our results provide a pathway for realizing non-Hermitian Hamiltonians in optomechanical systems at a quantum level.

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 dynami cs 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.
A three level atom in $Lambda$ configuration is reduced to an effective two level system, under appropriate conditions, and its $mathcal{PT}$ symmetric properties are investigated. This effective qubit system when subjected to a beam-splitter type of interaction, it provides the scope of directly (indirectly) probing the nonclassical properties of the output (input) state. Here, we study nonclassical properties of the output state by using some well known measures of nonclassical correlations like the measurement induced disturbance, concurrence and negativity. The nonclassical features are found to enhance in the $mathcal{PT}$ symmetric (PTS) phase compared to the $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry broken (PTSB) phase. Further, the output ports of the beam-splitter are subjected to different quantum noise channels, both non-Markovian, e.g., random telegraph noise as well as Markovian, e.g., phase damping, and amplitude damping noise. The application of noise channels is found to decrease the degree of nonclassicality, though continuing to exhibit distinct behavior in PTS and PTSB phases, with the dominant behavior appearing in the former case.
A protocol for explicitly constructing the exact time-evolution operators generated by $2 times 2$ time-dependent $PT$-symmetry Hamiltonians is reported. Its mathematical applicability is illustrated with the help of appropriate examples. The physica l relevance of the proposed approach within gain-loss system scenarios, like two-coupled wave-guides, is discussed in detail.
Non-Hermitian systems with parity-time reversal ($mathcal{PT}$) or anti-$mathcal{PT}$ symmetry have attracted a wide range of interest owing to their unique characteristics and counterintuitive phenomena. One of the most extraordinary features is the presence of an exception point (EP), across which a phase transition with spontaneously broken $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry takes place. We implement a Floquet Hamiltonian of a single qubit with anti-$mathcal{PT}$ symmetry by periodically driving a dissipative quantum system of a single trapped ion. With stroboscopic emission and quantum state tomography, we obtain the time evolution of density matrix for an arbitrary initial state, and directly demonstrate information retrieval, eigenstates coalescence, and topological energy spectra as unique features of non-Hermitian systems.

The parity-time ($mathcal{PT}$) symmetric structures have exhibited potential applications in developing various robust quantum devices. In an optical trimmer with balanced loss and gain, we analytically study the $mathcal{PT}$ symmetric phase transi tion by investigating the spontaneous symmetric breaking. We also illustrate the single-photon transmission behaviors in both of the $mathcal{PT}$ symmetric and $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry broken phases. We find (i) the non-periodical dynamics of single-photon transmission in the $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry broken phase instead of $mathcal{PT}$ symmetric phase can be regarded as a signature of phase transition; and (ii) it shows unidirectional single-photon transmission behavior in both of the phases but comes from different underlying physical mechanisms. The obtained results may be useful to implement the photonic devices based on coupled-cavity system.
