Abstract
Parity-time-reversal (PT) symmetric quantum mechanics promotes the increasing research interest of non-Hermitian (NH) systems for the theoretical value, novel properties, and links to open and dissipative systems in various areas. Recently, anti-PT-symmetric systems and its featured properties start to be investigated. In this work, we develop the PT- and anti-PT symmetry to PT-arbitrary-phase symmetry (or PT-φ symmetry) for the first time, being analogous to bosons, fermions and anyons. It can also be seen as a complex extension of the PT-symmetry, unifying the PT and anti-PT symmetries and having properties intermediate between them. Many of the established concepts and mathematics in the PT-symmetric system are still compatible. We mainly investigate quantum simulation of this novel NH-system of two-dimensions in detail and discuss for higher-dimensional cases in general using the linear combinations of unitaries in the scheme of duality quantum computing, enabling implementations and experimental investigations of novel properties on both small quantum devices and near-term quantum computers.
