Oct 27, 2019 at 15:44 comment added Emilio Pisanty "more generally, how do we define Hermiticity for antilinear operators?" $-$ who says that we do? I wouldn't consider using such notation at all, and I would class its usage in any text in the literature as misleading unless the text was extremely clear about what they meant by the notation and how the notion interacts with the usual notion of hermiticity.

Oct 27, 2019 at 5:12 comment added fieryslug The weird thing is that any c-number a+ib is an "eigenstate" of the operator with an eigenvalue (a-ib)/(a+ib), which is not necessarily real.
Oct 27, 2019 at 4:46 comment added Alex Are you sure the eigenvalues are not necessarily real?
