Conservation of pseudo-norm in PT symmetric quantum mechanics

arXiv:math-ph/0104012

Abstract

An extension of the Stone's theorem to PT symmetric, extended quantum mechanics must employ its pseudo-norm. We show that the evolution of the wave functions is then pseudo-unitary, and emphasize that their pseudo-norm remains time-independent even in the spontaneously broken symmetry regime where the energies themselves cease to be real.
