Abstract

An algorithm for finding the bound-state eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a Hermitian Hamiltonian operator using Green's method, developed by Waxman [ 1 ], has been extended to include non-Hermitian Hamiltonian operators.

Computing quantum eigenvalues made easy

H. J. Korsch, Markus Glück

An extremely simple and convenient method is presented for computing eigenvalues in quantum mechanics by representing position and momentum operators in matrix form. The simplicity and success of the method is illustrated by numerical results concerning eigenvalues of bound systems and resonances for Hermitian and non-Hermitian Hamiltonians as well as driven quantum systems. Various MATLAB program codes are listed.

Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the perturbed non-Hermitian SSH Hamiltonian with PT symmetry

Tat'yana Sergeevna Tinyukova, Yu. P. Chuburin

In the paper we find near-zero eigenvalues (their physical meaning is the electron energy) and eigenfunctions describing the electronic states of the non-Hermitian SSH Hamiltonian for an infinite chain with PT symmetry, perturbed by a $\delta$-shaped potential. We prove that for a small non-Hermitian parameter there are two (generalized) eigenvalues of multiplicity one, and, in contrast to the Hermitian model, the corresponding (generalized) eigenfunctions depending on the parameters of the system can either increase exponentially (which corresponds to resonant, i.e., decaying states) or decrease exponentially (which corresponds to bound states) as $|n|\to\infty$.

In the paper we find near-zero eigenvalues (their physical meaning is the electron energy) and eigenfunctions describing the electronic states of the non-Hermitian SSH Hamiltonian for an infinite chain with PT symmetry, perturbed by a δ\deltaδ-shaped potential. We prove that for a small non-Hermitian parameter there are two (generalized) eigenvalues of multiplicity one, and, in contrast to the Hermitian model, the corresponding (generalized) eigenfunctions depending on the parameters of the system can either increase exponentially (which corresponds to resonant, i.e., decaying states) or decrease exponentially (which corresponds to bound states) as ∣n∣→∞|n|\to\infty∣n∣→∞.
