Most of the work done in the field of Bose-Einstein condensates with balanced gain and loss has been performed in the mean-field approximation using the PT-symmetric Gross-Pitaevskii equation. In this work we study the many-particle dynamics of a two-mode condensate with balanced gain and loss described by a master equation in Lindblad form whose purity periodically drops to small values but then is nearly completely restored. This effect cannot be covered by the mean-field approximation, in which a completely pure condensate is assumed. We present analytic solutions for the dynamics in the non-interacting limit and use the Bogoliubov backreaction method to discuss the influence of the on-site interaction. Our main result is that the strength of the purity revivals is almost exclusively determined by the strength of the gain and loss and is independent of the amount of particles in the system and the interaction strength. For larger particle numbers, however, strong revivals are shifted towards longer times, but by increasing the interaction strength these strong revivals again occur earlier.
In this work we present a new generic feature of PT-symmetric Bose-Einstein condensates by studying the many-particle description of a two-mode condensate with balanced gain and loss. This is achieved using a master equation in Lindblad form whose me
Balanced gain and loss renders the mean-field description of Bose-Einstein condensates PT symmetric. However, any experimental realization has to deal with unbalancing in the gain and loss contributions breaking the PT symmetry. We will show that suc
Bose-Einstein condensates with balanced gain and loss can support stationary states despite the exchange of particles with the environment. In the mean-field approximation this is described by the PT-symmetric Gross-Pitaevskii equation with real eige
We investigate vortex excitations in dilute Bose-Einstein condensates in the presence of complex $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric potentials. These complex potentials are used to describe a balanced gain and loss of particles and allow for an easier calculati
We present a quantum master equation describing a Bose-Einstein condensate with particle loss on one lattice site and particle gain on the other lattice site whose mean-field limit is a non-Hermitian PT-symmetric Gross-Pitaevskii equation. It is show
