PT-symmetry and supersymmetry: interconnection of broken and unbroken phases

Abstract: The broken and unbroken phases of P T and supersymmetry in optical systems are explored for a complex refractive index profile in the form of a Scarf potential, under the framework of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The transition from unbroken to the broken phases of P T … Show more

“…Given a potential solves the KdV system, the corresponding superpotential satisfies the modified KdV (mKdV) equations 33,45 as the respective solutions to these two equations are related through the Miura transformation: u = v 2 ± v x 46, 47 . Moreover, since there are two distinct mKdV equations with solutions connected as v → iv, there is another class of KdV solutions with functional form: u = −v 2 ± iv x 46, 48 .…”

“…In the literature, Scarf II potential has recently attracted much attention, in general not by itself, but for its complexification as a particular simple model to display analytically some properties of complex potentials (see for instance [4][5][6][7][8][9]).…”

“…In general, complex potentials (non-Hermitian Hamiltonians) emerges frequently in optical systems [17,18]. For example, the Scarf-II potential, or its complexifications, is used as the refractive index profile in [9] and the broken and unbroken PT and SUSY potentials in optical systems related with Scarf II potential were investigated in [8,9]. For complex potentials, PT symmetry may assure real eigenvalues, so it is an important important concept.…”
