Non-Hermitian Hamiltonian beyond PT-symmetry for time-dependant SU(1,1) and SU(2) systems -- exact solution and geometric phase in pseudo-invariant theory

Abstract

We investigate in this paper time-dependent non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, which consist respectively of SU(1,1) and SU(2) generators. The former Hamiltonian is PT symmetric but the latter one is not. A time-dependent non-unitary operator is proposed to construct the non-Hermitian invariant, which is verified as pseudo-Hermitian with real eigenvalues. The exact solutions are obtained in terms of the eigenstates of the pseudo-Hermitian invariant operator for both the SU(1,1)and SU(2)systems in a unified manner. Then, we derive the LR phase, which can be separated to the dynamic phase and the geometrical phase. The analytical results are exactly in agreement with those of corresponding Hermitian Hamiltonians in the literature.
