AN ALGEBRAIC APPROACH TO A HARMONIC OSCILLATOR PLUS AN INVERSE SQUARE POTENTIAL IN TWO DIMENSIONS

Abstract

The exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation with a harmonic oscillator plus an inverse square potential are obtained in two dimensions. We construct the ladder operators directly from the radial wave functions and find that these operators satisfy the commutation relations of an SU (1, 1) group. We obtain the explicit expressions of the matrix elements for some related functions ρ and [Formula: see text] with ρ = r2. We also explore another symmetry between the eigenvalues E(r) and E(ir) by substituting r→ir.

An Algebraic Approach to the Harmonic Oscillator Plus an Inverse Square Potential in Three Dimensions

Shi‐Hai Dong, M. Lozada-Cas

The eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the three-dimensional Schrödinger equation with a harmonic oscillator plus an inverse square interaction are obtained. A realization of the ladder operators for the wave functions is studied. It is found that these operators satisfy the commutation relations of an SU(1,1) group. The closed analytical expressions for the matrix elements of different functions ρ and ρd/dρ with ρ = r 2 are evaluated. Another hidden symmetry explores the relations between the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for substituting r→ ir. PACS number(s): 03. 65. Fd, 03. 65.Ge and 02. 20.Qs.

EXACT SOLUTIONS, LADDER OPERATORS AND BARUT–GIRARDELLO COHERENT STATES FOR A HARMONIC OSCILLATOR PLUS AN INVERSE SQUARE POTENTIAL

Shi‐Hai Dong, Marcelo Lozada‐Cassou

We present exact solutions of the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation with a harmonic oscillator plus an inverse square potential. The ladder operators are constructed by the factorization method. We find that these operators satisfy the commutation relations of the generators of the dynamical group SU(1, 1). Based on those ladder operators, we obtain the analytical expressions of matrix elements for some related functions ρ and [Formula: see text] with ρ=x2. Finally, we make some comments on the Barut–Girardello coherent states and the hidden symmetry between E(x) and E(ix) by substituting x→ix.

Algebraic approach to a harmonic oscillator plus an inverse squared potential and its recurrence relation

Shishan Dong, Shi‐Hai Dong, Marcelo Lozada‐Cassou

We present exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation with a harmonic oscillator plus an inverse squared potential in arbitrary dimensions. The ladder operators for the radial wavefunctions are established by the factorization method. We find that those operators together with satisfy the commutation relation of the generators of an su(1, 1) algebra. Some comments are made on the general calculation formula for off-diagonal matrix elements and the recurrence relation among them. Also, we show that this anharmonic oscillator possesses a hidden symmetry between E ( r ) and E (i r ) by substituting r → i r .

A realization of the ladder operators for the solutions to the Schrödinger equation with a pseudoharmonic oscillator in 2D is presented. It is shown that those operators satisfy the commutation relations of an SU(1, 1) algebra. Closed analytical expressions are evaluated for the matrix elements of some operators r2 and r∂/∂ r

Hidden symmetries and thermodynamic properties for a harmonic oscillator plus an inverse square potential

Abstract The exact solutions of a one‐dimensional Schrödinger equation with a harmonic oscillator plus an inverse square potential are obtained. The ladder operators constructed directly from the normalized wavefunctions are found to satisfy a su(1, 1) algebra. Another hidden symmetry is used to explore the relations between the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions by substituting x → −ix. The vibrational partition function Z is calculated exactly to study thermodynamic functions such as the vibrational mean energy U, specific heat C, free energy F, and entropy S. It is both interesting and surprising to find that both vibrational specific heat C and entropy S are independent of the potential strength α. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2007
