- Abstract: The {\eta} pseudo PT symmetry theory, denoted by the symbol {\eta}, explores
the conditions under which non-Hermitian Hamiltonians can possess real spectra
despite the violation of PT symmetry, that is the adjoint of H, denoted
H^{{\dag}} is expressed as H^{{\dag}}=PTHPT. This theory introduces a new
symmetry operator, {\eta}=PT{\eta}, which acts on the Hilbert space. The {\eta}
pseudo PT symmetry condition requires the Hamiltonian to commute with the
{\eta} operator, leading to real eigenvalues. We discuss some general
implications of our results for the coupled non hermitian harmonic oscillator.

The non-Hermitian paradigm of quantum systems displays salient features drastically different from Hermitian counterparts.
We propose a formalism that quantifies the (dis-)similarity of these right and left ensembles, for single- as well as many-particle quantum properties.
Our findings can be instrumental in unveiling new exotic quantum phases of non-Hermitian quantum many-body systems.

Recently, it has been demonstrated that the non-Hermitian skin effect generates a new type of PT symmetry, dubbed the non-Bloch PT symmetry.
Here, we uncover the geometric mechanism of non-Bloch PT symmetry and its breaking.
We predict a new type of spectral singularity singularities associated with the symmetry breaking, dubbed non-Bloch van Hove.

We show how $PT$ symmetry may allow interpretations that evade ghosts and instabilities present in an interpretation of the theory within a Hermitian framework.
