Abstract

For a subclass of a general mathcal{PT}-symmetric Hamiltonian obeying anti-commutation relation with its conjugate, a Hermitian basis is found that spans the bi-orthonormal energy eigenvectors. Using the modified projectors constructed from these eigenvectors, the generalized density matrix of the mathcal{PT}-symmetric evolution is calculated, and subsequently, ergotropy for a closed system is obtained. The mathcal{PT}-symmetric system, in an open system scenario, is studied to understand ergotropy under different regimes of non-Hermiticity of the Hamiltonian. The consistency of the three laws of thermodynamics for the mathcal{PT}-symmetric system in an open system scenario is also analyzed.
