520 _aThe book Parity-Time Symmetry and Its Applications is an advanced reference on the theory and applications of PT symmetry in quantum mechanics and photonics. Edited by leading researchers, it covers the mathematical foundations of non-Hermitian physics, exceptional points, optical waveguides, lasers, and emerging technologies. Combining theoretical developments with experimental research, the book serves as a comprehensive resource for graduate students, physicists, engineers, and researchers working in quantum physics, optics, and related interdisciplinary fields.
