The recently theoretical and experimental researches related to $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric system have attracted unprecedented attention because of various novel features and potentials in extending canonical quantum mechanics. However, as the counterpart of $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry, there are only a few researches on anti-$mathcal{PT}$-symmetry. Here, we propose an algorithm for simulating the universal anti-$mathcal{PT}$-symmetric system with quantum circuit. Utilizing the protocols, an oscillation of information flow is observed for the first time in our Nuclear Magnetic Resonance quantum simulator. We will show that information will recover from the environment completely when the anti-$mathcal{PT}$-symmetry is broken, whereas no information can be retrieved in the symmetry-unbroken phase. Our work opens the gate for practical quantum simulation and experimental investigation of universal anti-$mathcal{PT}$-symmetric system in quantum computer.

Parity-time($mathcal{PT}$)-symmetric systems, featuring real eigenvalues despite its non-Hermitian nature, have been widely utilized to achieve exotic functionalities in the classical realm, such as loss-induced transparency or lasing revival. By app
roaching the exceptional point (EP) or the coalescences of both eigenvalues and eigenstates, unconventional effects are also expected to emerge in pure quantum $mathcal{PT}$ devices. Here, we report experimental evidences of spontaneous $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking in a single cold $^{40}mathrm{Ca}^{+}$ ion, and more importantly, a counterintuitive effect of perfect quantum coherence occurring at the EP. Excellent agreement between experimental results and theoretical predictions is identified. In view of the versatile role of cold ions in building quantum memory or processor, our experiment provides a new platform to explore and utilize pure quantum EP effects, with diverse applications in quantum engineering of trapped ions.
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 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 capability to temporarily arrest the propagation of optical signals is one of the main challenges hampering the ever more widespread use of light in rapid long-distance transmission as well as all-optical on-chip signal processing or computations
. To this end, flat-band structures are of particular interest, since their hallmark compact eigenstates do not only allow for the localization of wave packets, but importantly also protect their transverse profile from deterioration without the need for additional diffraction management. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate that, far from being a nuisance to be compensated, judiciously tailored loss distributions can in fact be the key ingredient in synthesizing such flat bands in non-Hermitian environments. We probe their emergence in the vicinity of an exceptional point and directly observe the associated compact localised modes that can be excited at arbitrary positions of the periodic lattice.
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 imp
lications 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.
