Exceptional point in a coupled Swanson system

We propose an interacting non-Hermitian model described by a two-mode quadratic Hamiltonian along with an interaction term to locate and analyse the presence of an exceptional point in the system. Each mode is guided by a Swanson-like quadratic Hamiltonian and a suitable choice is made for the interaction term. The parity-time symmetric transformation is adopted in the standard way relevant for a coupled system. Copyright (C) 2022 EPLA
