Spectral crossovers in non-Hermitian spin chains: Comparison with random matrix theory.

We present a systematic investigation of the short-range spectral fluctuation properties of three non-Hermitian spin-chain Hamiltonians using complex spacing ratios (CSRs). Specifically, we focus on the non-Hermitian variants of the standard one-dimensional anisotropic XY model having intrinsic rotation-time (RT) symmetry that has been explored analytically by Zhang and Song [Phys.
