• Abstract: Environment-assisted approaches to nonclassical light offer a practical path to strong squeezing in imperfect, lossy platforms. In this paper, we study a degenerate parametric oscillator in which a coherently driven cavity is coupled to a broadband squeezed reservoir via a single-port mirror. At the same time, the intracavity dynamics include non-Hermitian (gain-loss-imbalanced) terms. Within input--output theory, we obtain closed-form expressions for the steady-state quadrature variances, the output squeezing spectrum, and the power spectrum, and map their dependence on the reservoir squeeze factor, the coherent drive amplitude, and the parametric gain. We find that the non-Hermitian contributions open operating windows in which the intracavity quadrature noise is markedly suppressed below the standard quantum limit and, depending on the parameter set, either sharpen or amplify spectral squeezing and power-spectral features at the output. The non-Hermitian coefficients are treated as effective, low-order drift parameters that describe calibrated imbalance between engineered source and sink channels after auxiliary degrees of freedom have been eliminated. The analysis is restricted to the stable Gaussian regime in which the drift matrix is stable, and the squeezed-reservoir diffusion matrix remains physical. The results demonstrate an environment-assisted approach in which reservoir engineering and coherent driving work together to enhance squeezing. The resulting parameter maps identify experimentally testable windows, rather than a unique device prescription, for combining reservoir squeezing, coherent driving, and controlled gain/loss imbalance in cavity-QED and nonlinear photonic settings.
