arXiv:2606.07275v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The characterization of the quantum critical properties of genuine non-Hermitian many-body systems remains ambiguous as neither the state considered nor the definition of expectation values is unique. In this work, we investigate the quantum critical properties of two models of non-Hermitian XY spin chains with magnetic field. Using exact solutions, we systematically investigate the parameter dependence of the energy, the magnetization as well a
