Abstract
Abstract The Schrödinger equation in D‐dimensions for the Manning‐Rosen potential with the centrifugal term is solved approximately to obtain bound states eigensolutions (eigenvalues and eigenfunctions). The Nikiforov‐Uvarov (NU) method is used in the calculations. We present numerical calculations of energy eigenvalues to two‐ and four‐dimensional systems for arbitrary quantum numbers n and l with three different values of the potential parameter α. It is shown that because of the interdimensional degeneracy of eigenvalues, we can also reproduce eigenvalues of a upper/lower dimensional system from the well‐known eigenvalues of a lower/upper dimensional system by means of the transformation (n,l,D) → (n,l ± 1,D ∓ 2). This solution reduces to the Hulthén potential case.
