Abstract

The Hamiltonian of a quantum mechanical system has an affiliated spectrum, and in order for this spectrum to be locally observable, the Hamiltonian should be Hermitian. Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians can be observed non-locally via parity, i.e. by taking the expectation value of the Wigner distribution evaluated at the orgin in phase space. Studies such as these quantum nonlocality analogies have led to the Bender-Brody-M\"uller (BBM) conjecture, which involves a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian eigenequation whose eigenvalues are the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Herein it is shown from symmetrization of the BBM Hamiltonian that the eigenvalues are not locally observable, i.e. \textit{the analytic continuation of the Riemann zeta ...
