Description

The two-body loss associated with inelastic interactions between fermions plays a significant role in realistic many-body systems. Here we study a two-component non-Hermitian Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer superfluidity with spin imbalance and two-body loss characterized by a complex-valued s-wave interaction in a square lattice. At the mean-field level, we map out the zero-temperature phase diagram and observe a dissipation-induced transition from superfluid to normal phase as well as a distinctive revival of the superfluid state in the weakly interacting regime applicable to both spin-balanced and spin-imbalanced systems. In the spin-imbalanced case, we find that the effective density of states involving weight functions reduces the regions in k space contributing to pairing, hence leading to a pronounced expansion of the normal phase on the phase diagram. Additionally, we analyze the order parameter, condensate energy, quasiparticle spectra, momentum distribution, and compressibility to characterize the presenting phases and phase transitions.
