Multiple non-hermitian phase transitions on quantum torus surface

Abstract

In this paper we investigate the arising of non-hermitian phase transitions on quantum torus surfaces. We consider a single fermion whose dynamics is governed by the Dirac equation confined to move on a quantum torus surface. The effects of the geometry are take into account by using the tetrad formalism and the spin connection. The Dirac equation gives rise to two coupled first-order differential equations for each spinor component. The eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for each spinor component are computed numerically and the non-hermitian phase transitions are investigated in terms of the geometric features of the torus and the magnitude of the imaginary component of the mass.
