Discrete PT −symmetric models of scattering
One-dimensional scattering mediated by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians is studied. A schematic set of models is used which simulate two point interactions at a variable strength and distance. The feasibility of the exact construction of the amplitudes is achieved via the discretization of the coordinate. By direct construction it is shown that in all our models the probability is conserved. This fea...
متن کاملScattering of the discrete solitons on the PT -symmetric defects
We study the propagation of linear waves and solitons in an array of optical waveguides with an embedded defect created by a pair of waveguides with gain and loss satisfying the socalled parity-time (PT ) symmetry condition. We demonstrate that in the case of small soliton amplitudes, the linear theory describes the scattering of solitons with a good accuracy. We find that the incident high-amp...
متن کاملIntegrable discrete PT symmetric model.
An exactly solvable discrete PT invariant nonlinear Schrödinger-like model is introduced. It is an integrable Hamiltonian system that exhibits a nontrivial nonlinear PT symmetry. A discrete one-soliton solution is constructed using a left-right Riemann-Hilbert formulation. It is shown that this pure soliton exhibits unique features such as power oscillations and singularity formation. The propo...
متن کاملScattering properties of PT-symmetric objects
We investigate the scattering response of parity-time (PT) symmetric structures. We show that, due to the local flow of energy between gain and loss regions, such systems can deflect light in unusual ways, as a function of the gain/loss contrast. Such structures are highly anisotropic and their scattering patterns can drastically change as a function of the angle of incidence. In addition, we d...
متن کاملScattering in PT -Symmetric Quantum Mechanics
A general formalism is worked out for the description of one-dimensional scattering in non-hermitian quantum mechanics and constraints on transmission and reflection coefficients are derived in the cases of P, T or PT invariance of the Hamiltonian. Applications to some solvable PT -symmetric potentials are shown in detail. Our main original results concern the association of reflectionless pote...
