The 4D Naimark dilated PT brachistochrone as 2D Hermitian brachistochrone
The 4D Naimark dilated PT brachistochrone as 2D Hermitian brachistochrone
Günther, U.
Abstract
After a brief exposition of the Naimark dilated PT brachistochrone [PRL 101, 230404 (2008)] evidence is provided that the dilation (doubling of the Hilbert space dimension) preserves the brachistochrone features of the model. The dilated PT brachistochrone in 4D-Hilbert space behaves as an effective Hermitian brachistochrone in the 2D subspace spanned by the 4D initial and final states.
Keywords: PT quantum mechanics; non-Hermitian Hamiltonian; Naimark dilation; quantum brachistochrone; dilation invariants
