• Abstract: We study the dynamics of correlations in a paradigmatic setup to observe $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric physics: a pair of coupled oscillators, one subject to a gain one to a loss. Starting from a coherent state, quantum correlations (QCs) are created, despite the system being driven only incoherently, and can survive indefinitely. $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking is accompanied by non-zero stationary QCs. We link $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking to the long-time behavior of both total and QCs, which display different scalings in the $\mathcal{PT}$-broken/unbroken phase and at the exceptional point (EP). This is analytically shown and quantitatively explained in terms of entropy balance. The EP in particular stands out as the most classical configuration.

  We study the interplay between $mathcalPT$-symmetry and quantum chaos in a non-Hermitian dynamical system. We find that the complex level spacing ratio can distinguish between all three phases. In the phases with $mathcalPT$-symmetry, the OTOC exhibits behaviour akin to what is observed in the Hermitian system.

  We consider a system of interacting spinless fermions on a two-leg triangular ladder with $pi/2$ magnetic flux per triangular plaquette. Microscopically, the system exhibits a U(1) symmetry corresponding to the conservation of total fermionic charge, and a discrete $mathbbZ$ symmetry. At the intersection of the three phases, the system features a critical point with an emergent SU(2) symmetry.

We implement a Floquet Hamiltonian of a single qubit with anti-$mathcalPT$ symmetry by periodically driving a dissipative quantum system of a single trapped ion.
