Popis: | The \( \mathcal{P}\mathcal{T} \) symmetry of the Coulomb potential and its solutions are studied along trajectories satisfying the \( \mathcal{P}\mathcal{T} \) symmetry requirement. It is shown that with appropriate normalization constant the general solutions can be chosen \( \mathcal{P}\mathcal{T} \) -symmetric if the L parameter that corresponds to angular momentum in the Hermitian case is real. \( \mathcal{P}\mathcal{T} \) symmetry is spontaneously broken, however, for complex L values of the form L = −1/2 + iλ. In this case the potential remains \( \mathcal{P}\mathcal{T} \) -symmetric, while the two independent solutions are transformed to each other by the \( \mathcal{P}\mathcal{T} \) operation and at the same time, the two series of discrete energy eigenvalues turn into each other’s complex conjugate. |
