Abstract
An algorithm previously obtained for complex-energy modal probabilities in non-Hermitian quantum dynamics is generalized to determine expectation values for arbitrary observables. When cast in conventional form, the formalism including the generalized algorithms appears as a natural generalization of conventional quantum theory, in that conventional quantum theory obtains in the continuous Hermitian limit.Keywords
