Objectives


1. Developing a general theory of non-Hermitian superconductivity starting from the open quantum mechanics framework.

2. Applying the theory to solve the problem of magnetic impurities in the non-Hermitian superconductors.

3. Investigating the potential of non-Hermitian superconducting circuits for quantum processing applications.


  The estimated results:

1. Obtaining a BCS theory for non-Hermitian superconductors, and an Eliashberg theory to account for electron-phonon coupling.

2. Obtaining spectrum and density of states due to single and multiple magnetic impurities in non-Hermitian superconductors.

3. Determine the role of exceptional points in the functioning of non-Hermitian superconducting circuits.
