| contents | In the past decades, researches on parity-time (PT) and anti-parity-time(APT) systems have garnered unprecedented attention, showcasing their various intriguing characteristics and promising potentiality in extending canonical Hermitian quantum mechanics. However, despite significant endeavors devoted to this new field of physics, non-Hermitian dynamics of contextuality still remains an uncharted region, either in PT-symmetry or APT-symmetry systems. Since contextuality has also been proven to be the core resource for quantum state discrimination (QSD) tasks, here we systematically investigate the novel performance of contextuality through QSD in both systems, taking mirror-symmetric three-state minimum error discrimination (MED) and maximum confidence discrimination (MCD) scenarios as two examples. The time evolution of contextuality in two scenarios and eight regimes (four regimes for each scenario) are comprehensively compared and analyzed, with the difference of initial states also considered. In the symmetry-unbroken regimes, our simulation shows periodic oscillations of contextuality for both MED and MCD scenarios, the period of which is state-independent but related to non-Hermiticity of the system. Both MED and MCD shows non-trivial recovery of contextuality exceeding its initial value in PT system, which is only existent for MCD in APT system. In the symmetry-broken regimes, the success probabilities of both scenarios start from a prompt decay at first, ending up with a stable value which is constantly 1/3. Non-triviality is found only for MCD scenario in PT system, where the recovered contextuality exceeds its initial value. |
