Abstract
We investigate Dirac's bra-ket formalism based on a rigged Hilbert space for a non-Hermite quantum system with a positive-definite metric. First, the rigged Hilbert space, characterized by positive-definite metric, is established. With the aid of the nuclear spectral theorem for the obtained rigged Hilbert space, spectral expansions are shown for the bra-kets by the generalized eigenvectors of a quasi-Hermite operator. The spectral expansions are utilized to endow the complete bi-orthogonal system and the transformation theory between the Hermite and non-Hermite systems. As an example of application, we show a specific description of our rigged Hilbert space treatment for some parity-time symmetrical quantum systems.
