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.

Open systems with gain, loss, or both, described by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, have been a research frontier for the past decade. In particular, such Hamiltonians which possess parity-time ($mathcal{PT}$) symmetry feature dynamically stable regimes
of unbroken symmetry with completely real eigenspectra that are rendered into complex conjugate pairs as the strength of the non-Hermiticity increases. By subjecting a $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric system to a periodic (Floquet) driving, the regime of dynamical stability can be dramatically affected, leading to a frequency-dependent threshold for the $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry breaking transition. We present a simple model of a time-dependent $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonian which smoothly connects the static case, a $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Floquet case, and a neutral-$mathcal{PT}$-symmetric case. We analytically and numerically analyze the $mathcal{PT}$ phase diagrams in each case, and show that slivers of $mathcal{PT}$-broken ($mathcal{PT}$-symmetric) phase extend deep into the nominally low (high) non-Hermiticity region.
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.
Non-hermitian, $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonians, experimentally realized in optical systems, accurately model the properties of open, bosonic systems with balanced, spatially separated gain and loss. We present a family of exactly solvable, two-d
imensional, $mathcal{PT}$ potentials for a non-relativistic particle confined in a circular geometry. We show that the $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry threshold can be tuned by introducing a second gain-loss potential or its hermitian counterpart. Our results explicitly demonstrate that $mathcal{PT}$ breaking in two dimensions has a rich phase diagram, with multiple re-entrant $mathcal{PT}$ symmetric phases.
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.
We report the spectral features of a phase-shifted parity and time ($mathcal{PT}$)-symmetric fiber Bragg grating (PPTFBG) and demonstrate its functionality as a demultiplexer in the unbroken $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric regime. The length of the proposed
system is of the order of millimeters and the lasing spectra in the broken $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric regime can be easily tuned in terms of intensity, bandwidth and wavelength by varying the magnitude of the phase shift in the middle of the structure. Surprisingly, the multi-modal lasing spectra are suppressed by virtue of judiciously selected phase and the gain-loss value. Also, it is possible to obtain sidelobe-less spectra in the broken $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric regime, without a need for an apodization profile, which is a traditional way to tame the unwanted sidelobes. The system is found to show narrow band single-mode lasing behavior for a wide range of phase shift values for given values of gain and loss. Moreover, we report the intensity tunable reflection and transmission characteristics in the unbroken regime via variation in gain and loss. At the exceptional point, the system shows unidirectional wave transport phenomenon independent of the presence of phase shift in the middle of the grating. For the right light incidence direction, the system exhibits zero reflection wavelengths within the stopband at the exceptional point. We also investigate the role of multiple phase shifts placed at fixed locations along the length of the FBG and the variations in the spectra when the phase shift and gain-loss values are tuned. In the broken $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric regime, the presence of multiple phase shifts aids in controlling the number of reflectivity peaks besides controlling their magnitude.
