• Abstract: Exceptional points (EPs), a unique feature of non-Hermitian systems, represent degeneracies in non-Hermitian operators that likely do not occur in Hermitian systems. Nevertheless, unlike its fermionic counterpart, a Hermitian bosonic Kitaev model supports a non-Hermitian core matrix, involving a quantum phase transition (QPT) when an exceptional point appears. In this study, we examine QPTs by mapping the Hamiltonian onto a set of equivalent single-particle systems using a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS)-like pairing basis. We demonstrate the connection between the hidden EP and the localization-delocalization transition in the equivalent systems. The result is applicable to a Dicke model, which allows the experimental detection of the transition based on the measurement of the average number of photons for the quench dynamics stating from the empty state. Numerical simulations of the time evolution reveal a clear transition point at the EP.

  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.
