Stimulation of the Fluctuation Superconductivity byPTSymmetry

Abstract: We discuss fluctuations near the second order phase transition where the free energy has an additional non-Hermitian term. The spectrum of the fluctuations changes when the odd-parity potential amplitude exceeds the critical value corresponding to the PT -symmetry breakdown in the topological structure of the Hilbert space of the effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. We calculate the fluctuation contribution to the differential resistance of a superconducting weak link and find the manifestation of the PT -symm… Show more

“…The predicted properties of PT -symmetric Hamiltonians [1,2] have been observed at the classical level in a wide variety of laboratory experiments involving superconductivity [3,4], optics [5][6][7][8], microwave cavities [9], atomic diffusion [10], nuclear magnetic resonance [11], and coupled electronic and mechanical oscillators [12,13]. Although PT -symmetric systems were originally explored at a highly mathematical level, it is now understood that one can interpret PT -symmetric systems simply as nonisolated physical systems having a balanced loss and gain.…”
