The cryptohermitian smeared-coordinate representation of wave functions

The one-dimensional real line of coordinates is replaced, for simplification or approximation purposes, by an N-plet of the so called Gauss-Hermite grid points. These grid points are interpreted as the eigenvalues of a tridiagonal matrix $\mathfrak{q}_0$ which proves rather complicated. Via the "zeroth" Dyson-map $Ω_0$ the "operator of position" $\mathfrak{q}_0$ is then further simplified into an isospectral matrix $Q_0$ which is found optimal for the purpose. As long as the latter matrix appears non-Hermitian it is not an observable in the manifestly "false" Hilbert space ${\cal H}^{(F)}:=\mathbb{R}^N$. For this reason the optimal operator $Q_0$ is assigned the family of its isospectral avatars $\mathfrak{h}_α$, $α=(0,)\,1,2,...$. They are, by construction, selfadjoint in the respective $α-$dependent image Hilbert spaces ${\cal H}^{(P)}_α$ obtained from ${\cal H}^{(F)}$ by the respective "new" Dyson maps $Ω_α$. In the ultimate step of simplification, the inner product in the F-superscripted space is redefined in an {\it ad hoc}, $α-$dependent manner. The resulting "simplest", S-superscripted representations ${\cal H}^{(S)}_α$ of the eligible physical Hilbert spaces of states (offering different dynamics) then emerge as, by construction, unitary equivalent to the (i.e., indistinguishable from the) respective awkward, P-superscripted and $α-$subscripted physical Hilbert spaces.
