Abstract

We study a generalized Aubry-Andre model that obeys mathcal{PT}-symmetry. We observe a robust mathcal{PT}-symmetric phase with respect to system size and disorder strength, where all eigenvalues are real despite the Hamiltonian being non-hermitian. This robust mathcal{PT}-symmetric phase can support an Anderson localization transition, giving a rich phase diagram as a result of the interplay between disorder and mathcal{PT}-symmetry. Our model provides a perfect platform to study disorder-driven localization phenomena in a mathcal{PT}-symmetric system.
