A general algebraic procedure for constructing coherent states of a wide class of exactly solvable potentials e.g., Morse and P{ö}schl-Teller, is given. The method, {\it a priori}, is potential independent and connects with earlier developed ones, including the oscillator based approaches for coherent states and their generalizations. This approach can be straightforwardly extended to construct more general coherent states for the quantum mechanical potential problems, like the nonlinear coherent states for the oscillators. The time evolution properties of some of these coherent states, show revival and fractional revival, as manifested in the autocorrelation functions, as well as, in the quantum carpet structures.
We present a unified approach for solving and classifying exactly solvable potentials. Our unified approach encompasses many well-known exactly solvable potentials. Moreover, the new approach can be used to search systematically for a new class of solvable potentials.
We obtained a new class of exactly-solvable potentials by means of the hypergeometric equation for Schrodinger equation, which different from the exactly-solvable potentials introduced by Bose and Natanzon. Using the new class of solvable potentials, we can obtain the corresponding complex PT-invariant potentials. This method can also apply to the other Fuchs equations.
We provide an explanation to the behaviour of the spectra of two exactly-solvable one-dimensional Hamiltonians with PT symmetry proposed earlier. We calculate the branch points at which pairs of eigenvalues coalesce and discuss the perturbation series.
Supersymmetric method of the constructing well-like quasi exactly solvable (QES) potentials with three known eigenstates has been extended to the case of periodic potentials. The explicit examples are presented. New QES potential with two known eigenstates has been obtained.
A general approach for constructing multidimensional quasi-exactly solvable (QES) potentials with explicitly known eigenfunctions for two energy levels is proposed. Examples of new QES potentials are presented.
We propose a general method for constructing quasi-exactly solvable potentials with three analytic eigenstates. These potentials can be real or complex functions but the spectrum is real. A comparison with other methods is also performed.
We use a Lie algebraic technique to construct complex quasi exactly solvable potentials with real spectrum. In particular we obtain exact solutions of a complex sextic oscillator potential and also a complex potential belonging to the Morse family.
In this thesis, the quantum Hamilton Jacobi (QHJ) formalism is used to study various exactly solvable (ES) and quasi -exactly solvable (QES) models. Using this method, we obtain the bound state eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions for the models studied. The central entity of this formalism in the logarithmic derivative of the wave function, known as the quantum momentum function (QMF).It is assumed that the point at infinity is an isolated singular point.The kowledge of the singularity structure of the QMF is used to arrive at the required solutions. We show that there are marked differences be…
Quasi-exactly solvable rational potentials with known zero-energy solutions of the Schro\" odinger equation are constructed by starting from exactly solvable potentials for which the Schr\" odinger equation admits an so(2,1) potential algebra. For some of them, the zero-energy wave function is shown to be normalizable and to describe a bound state.
The Dirac equation is considered in the background of potentials of several types, namely scalar and vector-potentials as well as "Dirac-oscillator" potential or some of its generalisations. We investigate the radial Dirac equation within a quite general spherically symmetric form for these potentials and we analyse some exactly and quasi exactly solvable properties of the underlying matricial linear operators.
An extended notion of quasi-exactly solvable potential model is used here to treat quasi exactly solvable (QES) Bose systems. We report an analytic expression for the Ahoronov Anandan non-adiabatic geometric phase for the QES Bose system in general. The generalized expression is then used to study some particular cases of physical interest and we observe that the geometric phase can be tuned.
We deal with the exact solutions of Schrodinger equation characterized by position-dependent effective mass via point canonical transformations. The Morse, Poschl-Teller and Hulthen type potentials are considered respectively. With the choice of position-dependent mass forms, exactly solvable target potentials are constructed. Their energy of the bound states and corresponding wavefunctions are determined exactly.
We examine in detail the possibilty of applying Darboux transformation to non Hermitian hamiltonians. In particular we propose a simple method of constructing exactly solvable PT symmetric potentials by applying Darboux transformation to higher states of an exactly solvable PT symmetric potential. It is shown that the resulting hamiltonian and the original one are pseudo supersymmetric partners. We also discuss application of Darboux transformation to hamiltonians with spontaneously broken PT symmetry.
An exactly solvable model of a quantum spin interacting with a spin environment is considered. The interaction is chosen to be such that the state of the environment is conserved. The reduced density matrix of the spin is calculated for arbitrary coupling strength and arbitrary time. The stationary state of the spin is obtained explicitely in the $t \to \infty$ limit.
Recently, based on a supersymmetric approach, new classes of conditionally exactly solvable problems have been found, which exhibit a symmetry structure characterized by non-linear algebras. In this paper the associated ``non-linear'' coherent states are constructed and some of their properties are discussed in detail.
We develop a method to determine the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of two-boson Hamiltonians include a wide class of quantum optical models. The quantum Hamiltonians have been transformed in the form of the one variable differential equation and the conditions for its solvability have been discussed. Applicability of the method is demonstrated on some simple physical systems.
We compare two recent approaches of quasi-exactly solvable Schr\" odinger equations, the first one being related to finite-dimensional representations of $sl(2,R)$ while the second one is based on supersymmetric developments. Our results are then illustrated on the Razavy potential, the sextic oscillator and a scalar field model.
A new supersymmetry method for the generation of the quasi-exactly solvable (QES) potentials with two known eigenstates is proposed. Using this method we obtained new QES potentials for which we found in explicit form the energy levels and wave functions of the ground state and first excited state.
The intertwining operator technique is applied to difference Schroedinger equations with operator-valued coefficients. It is shown that these equations appear naturally when a discrete basis is used for solving a multichannel Schroedinger equation. New families of exactly solvable multichannel Hamiltonians are found.
We construct a variety of new exactly-solvable quantum systems, the potentials of which are given in terms of Lambert-W functions. In particular, we generate Schrödinger models with energy-dependent potentials, conventional Schrödinger models using the supersymmetry formalism, and two-dimensional Dirac systems. In addition, we derive Wronskian integral formulas for Lambert-W functions.
A conditionally exactly solvable potential, the supersymmetric partner of the harmonic oscillator is investigated in the PT-symmetric setting. It is shown that a number of properties characterizing shape-invariant and Natanzon-class potentials generated by an imaginary coordinate shift $x-{\rm i}ε$ also hold for this potential outside the Natanzon class.
Using supersymmetric quantum mechanics we construct the quasi-exactly solvable (QES) potentials with arbitrary two known eigenstates. The QES potential and the wave functions of the two energy levels are expressed by some generating function the properties of which determine the state numbers of these levels. Choosing different generating functions we present a few explicit examples of the QES potentials.
A new class of quasi exactly solvable potentials with a variable mass in the Schroedinger equation is presented. We have derived a general expression for the potentials also including Natanzon confluent potentials. The general solution of the Schroedinger equation is determined and the eigenstates are expressed in terms of the orthogonal polynomials.
One may obtain, using operator transformations, algebraic relations between the Fourier transforms of the causal propagators of different exactly solvable potentials. These relations are derived for the shape invariant potentials. Also, potentials related by real transformation functions are shown to have the same spectrum generating algebra with Hermitian generators related by this operator transformation.
We construct new quasi-exactly solvable one-dimensional potentials through Darboux transformations. Three directions are investigated: Reducible and two types of irreducible second-order transformations. The irreducible transformations of the first type give singular intermediate potentials and the ones of the second type give complex-valued intermediate potentials while final potentials are meaningful in all cases. These developments are illustrated on the so-called radial sextic oscillator.
We present in this paper a rather general method for the construction of so-called conditionally exactly solvable potentials. This method is based on algebraic tools known from supersymmetric quantum mechanics. Various families of one-dimensional potentials are constructed whose corresponding Schrödinger eigenvalue problem can be solved exactly under certain conditions of the potential parameters. Examples of quantum systems on the real line, the half line as well as on some finite interval are studied in detail.
A general procedure is presented to construct conditionally solvable (CES) potentials using the techniques of supersymmetric quantum mechanics.The method is illustrated with potentials related to the harmonic oscillator problem.Besides recovering known results,new CES potentials are also obtained within the framework of this general approach.The conditions under which this method leads to CES potentials are also discussed.
Recently developed supersymmetric perturbation theory has been successfully employed to make a complete mathematical analysis the reason behind exact solvability of some non-central potentials. This investigation clarifies once more the effectiveness of the present formalism.
We calculate the entanglement-assisted and unassisted channel capacities of an exactly solvable spin star system, which models the quantum dephasing channel. The capacities for this non-Markovian model exhibit a strong dependence on the coupling strengths of the bath spins with the system, the bath temperature, and the number of bath spins. For equal couplings and bath frequencies, the channel becomes periodically noiseless.
A series of exactly solvable non-trivial complex potentials (possessing real spectra) are generated by applying the Darboux transformation to the excited eigenstates of a non-Hermitian potential V(x). This method yields an infinite number of non-trivial partner potentials, defined over the whole real line, whose spectra are nearly exactly identical to the original potential.
We deform the real potential of Poeschl and Teller by a shift of its coordinate in imaginary direction. We show that the new model remains exactly solvable. Its bound states are constructed in closed form. Wave functions are complex and proportional to Jacobi polynomials. Some of them diverge in the Hermitian limit. In contrast, all their energies prove real and shift-independent. In this sense the lost Hermiticity of our family of Hamiltonians seems replaced by their accidental PT symmetry.
We consider a particle with a position-dependent mass, moving in a three-dimensional semi-infinite parallelepipedal or cylindrical channel under the influence of some hyperbolic potential. We show that the lack of uniformity in the environment generates an infinite number of bound states.
Two coupled two-level systems placed under external time-dependent magnetic fields are modeled by a general Hamiltonian endowed with a symmetry that enables us to reduce the total dynamics into two independent two-dimensional sub-dynamics. Each of the sub-dynamics is shown to be brought into an exactly solvable form by appropriately engineering the magnetic fields and thus we obtain an exact time evolution of the compound system. Several physically relevant and interesting quantities are evaluated exactly to disclose intriguing phenomena in such a system.
The two-dimensional hydrogen with a linear potential in a magnetic field is solved by two different methods. Furthermore the connection between the model and an anharmonic oscillator had been investigated by methods of KS transformation.
New examples of matrix quasi exactly solvable Schroedinger operators are constructed. One of them constitutes a matrix generalization of the quasi exactly solvable anharmonic oscillator, the corresponding invariant vector space is constructed explicitely. Also investigated are matrix generalizations of the Lame equation.
Using supersymmetric quantum mechanics we develop a new method for constructing quasi-exactly solvable (QES) potentials with two known eigenstates. This method is extended for constructing conditionally-exactly solvable potentials (CES). The considered QES potentials at certain values of parameters become exactly solvable and can be treated as CES ones.
By exploiting the hidden algebraic structure of the Schrodinger Hamiltonian, namely the sl(2), we propose a unified approach of generating both exactly solvable and quasi-exactly solvable quantum potentials. We obtain, in this way, two new classes of quasi-exactly solvable systems one of which is of periodic type while the other hyperbolic.
Matrix quasi exactly solvable operators are considered and new conditions are determined to test whether a matrix differential operator possesses one or several finite dimensional invariant vector spaces. New examples of $2\times 2$-matrix quasi exactly solvable operators are constructed with the emphasis set on PT-symmetric Hamiltonians.
In this paper we present a novel quasi-exactly solvable model with symmetric inverted potentials which are unbounded from below. The quasi-exactly solvable states are shown to be total transmission (or reflectionless) modes. From these modes even and odd wavefunctions can be constructed which are normalizable and flux-zero. Under the procedure of self-adjoint extension, a discrete spectrum of bound states can be obtained for these inverted potentials and the solvable part of the spectrum is the quasi-exactly solvable states we have discovered.
We comment that the conditionally exactly solvable potential of Dutt et al. and the exactly solvable potential from which it is derived form a dual system.
We extend the exactly solvable Hamiltonian describing $f$ quantum oscillators considered recently by J. Dorignac et al. by means of a new interaction which we choose as quasi exactly solvable. The properties of the spectrum of this new Hamiltonian are studied as function of the new coupling constant. This Hamiltonian as well as the original one are also related to adequate Lie structures.
In this paper we establish a relation between two exactly-solvable problems on one-dimensional hyperbolics space, namely singular Coulomb and singular oscillator systems.
Two families of quasi exactly solvable 2*2 matrix Schroedinger operators are constructed. The first one is based on a polynomial matrix potential and depends on three parameters. The second is a one-parameter generalisation of the scalar Lame equation. The relationship between these operators and QES Hamiltonians already considered in the literature is pointed out.
We review three examples of quasi exactly solvable (QES) Hamitonians which possess multiple algebraisations. This includes the most prominent example, the Lame equation, as well as recently studied many-body Hamiltonians with Weierstrass interaction potential and finally, a 2x2 coupled channel Hamiltonian.
A new exactly solvable alternative to the Calogero three-particle model is proposed. Sharing its confining long-range part, it contains the mere zero-range two-particle barriers. Their penetrability gives rise to a tunneling, tunable via their three independent strengths. Their variability can control the removal of the degeneracy of the energy levels in an innovative, non-perturbative manner.
By using the point canonical transformation approach in a manner distinct from previous ones, we generate some new exactly solvable or quasi-exactly solvable potentials for the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation with a position-dependent effective mass. In the latter case, SUSYQM techniques provide us with some additional new potentials.
A new exactly solvable relativistic periodic potential is obtained by the periodic extension of a well-known transparent scalar potential. It is found that the energy band edges are determined by a transcendental equation which is very similar to the corresponding equation for the Dirac Kronig-Penney model. The solutions of the Dirac equation are expressed in terms of elementary functions.
Several explicit examples of multi-particle quasi exactly solvable `discrete' quantum mechanical Hamiltonians are derived by deforming the well-known exactly solvable multi-particle Hamiltonians, the Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen systems. These are difference analogues of the quasi exactly solvable multi-particle systems, the quantum Inozemtsev systems obtained by deforming the well-known exactly solvable Calogero-Sutherland systems. They have a finite number of exactly calculable eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. This paper is a multi-particle extension of the recent paper by one of the auth…
We evaluate Shannon entropy for the position and momentum eigenstates of some conditionally exactly solvable potentials which are isospectral to harmonic oscillator and whose solutions are given in terms of exceptional orthogonal polynomials. The Bialynicki-Birula-Mycielski (BBM) inequality has also been tested for a number of states.
We have generated, using an sl(2,R) formalism, several new classes of quasi-solvable elliptic potentials, which in the appropriate limit go over to the exactly solvable forms. We have obtained exact solutions of the corresponding spectral problems for some real values of the potential parameters. We have also given explicit expressions of the families of associated orthogonal polynomials in the energy variable.
We propose a new SUSY method for construction of the quasi-exactly solvable (QES) potentials with three known eigenstates. New QES potentials and corresponding energy levels and wave functions of the ground state and two lowest excited state are obtained. The proposed scheme allows also to construct families of exactly solvable non-singular potentials which are SUSY partners of the well-known ones.
The approach of multi-dimensional SUSY Quantum Mechanics is used in an explicit construction of exactly solvable 3-body (and quasi-exactly-solvable $N$-body) matrix problems on a line. From intertwining relations with time-dependent operators, we build exactly solvable non-stationary scalar and $2\times 2$ matrix 3-body models which are time-dependent extensions of the Calogero model. Finally, we investigate the invariant operators associated to these systems.
Below we study theoretically and numerically the asymptotics of the algebraic part of the spectrum for the quasi-exactly solvable sextic potential, its level crossing points, and its monodromy in the complex plane of its parameter. We also discuss connection between the quasi-exactly solvable sextic and the classical quartic potential.
We systematically describe and classify 1-dimensional Schrödinger equations that can be solved in terms of hypergeometric type functions. Beside the well-known families, we explicitly describe 2 new classes of exactly solvable Schrödinger equations that can be reduced to the Hermite equation.
We find exact solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for a family of quasi-exactly solvable time-dependent potentials by means of non-unitary gauge transformations.
The scattering amplitude for the recently discovered exactly solvable shape invariant potential, which is isospectral to the generalized Pöschl-Taylor potential, is calculated explicitly by considering the asymptotic behavior of the $X_{1}$ Jacobi exceptional polynomials associated with this system.
Several explicit examples of quasi exactly solvable `discrete' quantum mechanical Hamiltonians are derived by deforming the well-known exactly solvable Hamiltonians of one degree of freedom. These are difference analogues of the well-known quasi exactly solvable systems, the harmonic oscillator (with/without the centrifugal potential) deformed by a sextic potential and the 1/sin^2x potential deformed by a cos2x potential. They have a finite number of exactly calculable eigenvalues and eigenfunctions.
