摘要
We study stability and collisions of quantum droplets (QDs) forming in a binary bosonic condensate trapped in parity-time (PT)-symmetric optical lattices. It is found that the stability of QDs in the PT-symmetric system depends strongly on the values of the imaginary part W-0 of the PT-symmetric optical lattices, self-repulsion strength g, and the condensate norm N. As expected, the PT-symmetric QDs are entirely unstable in the broken PT-symmetric phase. However, the PT-symmetric QDs exhibit oscillatory stability with the increase of N and g in the unbroken PT-symmetric phase. Finally, collisions between.. -symmetric QDs are considered. The collisions of droplets with unequal norms are completely different from that in free space. Besides, a stable PT-symmetric QDs collides with an unstable ones tend to merge into breathers after the collision.
