• Abstract: Many-body interactions give rise to the appearance of exotic phases in Hermitian physics. Despite their importance, many-body effects remain an open problem in non-Hermitian physics due to the complexity of treating many-body interactions. Here, we present a family of exact and numerical phase diagrams for non-Hermitian interacting Kitaev chains. In particular, we establish the exact phase boundaries for the dimerized Kitaev-Hubbard chain with complex-valued Hubbard interactions. Our results reveal that some of the Hermitian phases disappear as non-Hermiticty is enhanced. Based on our analytical findings, we explore the regime of the model that goes beyond the solvable regime, revealing regimes where non-Hermitian topological degeneracy remains. The combination of our exact and numerical phase diagrams provides an extensive description of a family of non-Hermitian interacting models. Our results provide a stepping stone toward characterizing non-Hermitian topology in realistic interacting quantum many-body systems.

  How the property of quantum many-body system especially the phase transition will be affected by the non-hermiticity remains unclear. We show that there is a continuous phase transition induced by the non-hermiticity in QCP. We observe that the order parameter and susceptibility display infinitely even for finite size system, since non-hermiticity endows universality many-body system with different singular behaviour from classical phase transition.
