Title: Multiple quantum exceptional, diabolical, and hybrid points in multimode bosonic systems: II. Nonconventional PT-symmetric dynamics and unidirectional coupling

Abstract: We analyze the existence and degeneracies of quantum exceptional, diabolical, and hybrid points of simple bosonic systems, composed of up to six modes with damping and/or amplification and exhibiting nonconventional dynamics. They involve the configurations in which the dynamics typical for PT-symmetric systems is observed only in a subspace of the whole Liouville space of the system states (nonconventional PT-symmetric dynamics) as well as those containing unidirectional coupling. The system dynamics described by quadratic non-Hermitian Hamiltonians is governed by the Heisenberg-Langevin equations. Conditions for the observation of inherited quantum hybrid points with up to sixth-order exceptional and second-order diabolical degeneracies are revealed, though relevant only for short-time dynamics. This raises the question of whether higher-order inherited singularities exist in bosonic systems that exhibit physically meaningful behavior at arbitrary times. On the other hand, for short times, unidirectional coupling of various types enables the concatenation of simple bosonic systems with second- and third-order exceptional degeneracies on demand. This approach allows for the creation of arbitrarily high exceptional degeneracies observed in systems with diverse structures. Methods for numerical identifying the quantum exceptional and hybrid points, and determining their degeneracies are discussed. Rich dynamics of higher-order field-operator moments is analyzed from the point of view of the presence of exceptional and diabolical points with their degeneracies in general.
Comments: Partial PT-symmetry like dynamics (nonconventional PT-symmetry) as well as non-Hermitian bosonic systems with unidirectional coupling are investigated. The work is in continuation of the paper entitled "Multiple quantum exceptional, diabolical, and hybrid points in multimode bosonic systems: I. Inherited and genuine singularities"
