文摘Two non-Hermitian PT-symmetric Hamiltonian systems are reconsidered by means of the algebraic method which was originally proposed for the pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian systems rather than for the PT-symmetric ones.Compared with the way converting a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian to its Hermitian counterpart,this method has the merit that keeps the Hilbert space of the non-Hermitian PT-symmetric Hamiltonian unchanged.In order to give the positive definite inner product for the PT-symmetric systems,a new operator V,instead of C,can be introduced.The operator V has the similar function to the operator C adopted normally in the PT-symmetric quantum mechanics,however,it can be constructed,as an advantage,directly in terms of Hamiltonians.The spectra of the two non-Hermitian PT-symmetric systems are obtained,which coincide with that given in literature,and in particular,the Hilbert spaces associated with positive definite inner products are worked out.
