Abstract: oindent We study the concept of the complementarity, introduced by Bagchi and Quesne in [Phys. Lett. A {�f 301}, 173 (2002)], between pseudo-Hermiticity and weak pseudo-Hermiticity in a rigorous mathematical viewpoint of coordinate transformations when a system has a position-dependent mass. We first determine, under the modified-momentum, the generating functions identifying the complexified potentials $V_{p}m(x)$ under both concepts of pseudo-Hermiticity $widetildeet{a}_{+}$ (resp. weak pseudo-Hermiticity $widetildeet{a}_{-}$). We show that the concept of complementarity can be understood and interpreted as a coordinate transformation through their respective generating functions. As consequence, a similarity transformation which implements coordinate transformations is obtained. We show that the similarity transformation is set up as fundamental relationship connecting both $widetildeet{a}_{+}$ and $widetildeet{a}_{-}$. A special factorization $et{a}_{+}=et{a}_{-}^{d}aggeret{a}_{-}$ is discussed in the case of a constant mass and some B"acklund transformations are derived.
