Abstract
The authors study the tunnel effect for an inverted oscillator with complex frequency. The solution of the corresponding non-Hermitian (NH) Schrodinger equation is found by the evolution operator method, based on the SU(1,1) structure of the Hamiltonian and the Wei-Norman theorem (1963). The authors put forward a generalization of dwell time for NH systems built up from their biorthonormal states. The resulting tunnelling time turns out to be complex.
