Bender, Carl M., 1943-
PT symmetry : in quantum and classical physics - 446 p.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 393-436) and index.
Introduction to PT symmetry -- PT-symmetric eigenvalue problems -- PT-symmetric quantum mechanics -- PT-symmetric classical mechanics -- PT-symmetric quantum field theory -- Proof of reality for some simple examples -- Exactly solvable PT-symmetric models -- Kreĭn-space theory and PTQM -- PT-symmetric deformations of nonlinear integrable systems -- PT symmetry in optics.
"Originated by the author in 1998, the field of PT (parity-time) symmetry has become an extremely active and exciting area of research. PT-symmetric quantum and classical systems have theoretical, experimental, and commercial applications, and have been the subject of many journal articles, PhD theses, conferences, and symposia. Carl Bender's work has influenced major advances in physics and generations of students. This book is an accessible entry point to PT symmetry, ideal for students and scientists looking to begin their own research projects in this field"--
