The interplay of supersymmetry and PT symmetry in quantum mechanics: a case study for the Scarf II potential
From MaRDI portal
Publication:4469898
Abstract: Motivated by the duality of normalizable states and the presence of the quasi-parity quantum number q=+/-1 in PT symmetric (non-Hermitian) quantum mechanical potential models, the relation of PT symmetry and supersymmetry (SUSY) is studied. As an illustrative example the PT invariant version of the Scarf II potential is presented, and it is shown that the "bosonic" Hamiltonian has two different "fermionic" SUSY partner Hamiltonians (potentials) generated from the ground-state solutions with q=1 and q=-1. It is shown that the "fermionic" potentials cease to be PT invariant when the PT symmetry of the "bosonic" potential is spontaneously broken. A modified PT symmetry inspired SUSY construction is also discussed, in which the SUSY charge operators contain the antilinear operator T. It is shown that in this scheme the "fermionic" Hamitonians are just the complex conjugate of the original "fermionic" Hamiltonians, and thus possess the same energy eigenvalues.
