The concept of&nbsp;<em>PT</em> symmetry was also introduced into quantum mechanics during this time. This paper defines the notion of a weak value measurement pointer Hamiltonian and establishes equivalences between its Dirac symmetries, its&nbsp;<em>PT</em> symmetries, its eigenvalues, and the associated weak value. The affect of these symmetries upon measurement pointer observables is also identified.</p> Allen Parks Copyright (c) 2024 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-06-04 2024-06-04 96 2 10.55632/pwvas.v96i2.1100
