Description:
Author(s): Carl M. Bender, Nima Hassanpour, S. P. Klevansky, and Sarben Sarkar P T -symmetric quantum mechanics began with a study of the Hamiltonian H = p 2 + x 2 ( i x ) ϵ . A surprising feature of this non-Hermitian Hamiltonian is that its eigenvalues are discrete, real, and positive when ϵ ≥ 0 . This paper examines the corresponding quantum-field-theoretic Hamiltonian H = 1 2 ( ∇ ϕ ) 2 + 1 2 ϕ 2 ( i ϕ ) ϵ i... [Phys. Rev. D 98, 125003] Published Thu Dec 13, 2018
