On two direct limits relating pseudo-Jacobi polynomials to Hermite polynomials and the pseudo-Jacobi oscillator in a homogeneous gravitational field

Sh. M. Nagiyev

We present two new limit relations that reduce the orthogonal pseudo-Jacobi polynomials directly to the Hermite polynomials with shifted and nonshifted arguments. The proofs of these limit relations are based on the method of mathematical induction. These limits open up the prospects for studying new exactly solvable harmonic oscillator models in homogeneous external fields in quantum mechanics in terms of pseudo-Jacobi polynomials. As an application of these limit relations, a model of a linear harmonic oscillator with a position-dependent mass in an external homogeneous gravitational field (a pseudo-Jacobi oscillator in an external field) is considered. The form of the generalized Hamiltonian for describing quantum mechanical systems with a position-dependent mass is presented.

A new model of the linear harmonic oscillator with the position-dependent mass and two direct limits relating Jacobi polynomials to Hermite polynomials

Sh. M. Nagiyev

We constructed a new exactly solvable model of the non-relativistic quantum linear harmonic oscillator with the position-dependent mass Mx=2m0/eαx+1. We solved the Schrödinger equation for this model in the absence and presence of an external homogeneous field. We showed that in both cases the wave functions of the bound states are expressed through Jacobi polynomials, and the corresponding energy spectra are non-equidistant. We also showed that in the limit α→0 the wave functions and energy spectra coincide with the corresponding expressions for a linear harmonic oscillator with the constant mass m0 in the absence and presence of an external homogeneous field. We present also two new limit relations that reduce the Jacobi polynomials directly to the Hermite polynomials with shifted and non-shifted arguments. The proofs of these limit relations are based on the method of mathematical induction.
