TY  - JOUR
AB - Recently much effort has been made towards the introduction of non-Hermitianrandom matrix models respecting $PT$-symmetry. Here we show that there is aone-to-one correspondence between complex $PT$-symmetric matrices andsplit-complex and split-quaternionic versions of Hermitian matrices. Weintroduce two new random matrix ensembles of (a) Gaussian split-complexHermitian, and (b) Gaussian split-quaternionic Hermitian matrices, of arbitrarysizes. They are related to the split signature versions of the complex and thequaternionic numbers, respectively. We conjecture that these ensemblesrepresent universality classes for $PT$-symmetric matrices. For the case of$2\times2$ matrices we derive analytic expressions for the joint probabilitydistributions of the eigenvalues, the one-level densities and the levelspacings in the case of real eigenvalues.
