Abstract

The Schwinger--DeWitt expansion for the evolution operator kernel is used to investigate analytical properties of the Schrödinger equation solution in time variable. It is shown, that this expansion, which is in general asymptotic, converges for a number of potentials (widely used, in particular, in one-dimensional many-body problems), and besides, the convergence takes place only for definite discrete values of the coupling constant. For other values of charge the divergent expansion determines the functions having essential singularity at origin (beyond usual $δ$-function). This does not permit one to fulfil the initial condition. So, the function obtained from the Schrödinger equation cannot be the evolution operator kernel. The latter, rigorously speaking, does not exist in this case. Thus, the kernel exists only for definite potentials, and moreover, at the considered examples the charge may have only quantized values.

On Convergence of the Schwinger-DeWitt Expansion

V. A. Slobodenyuk

The Schwinger - DeWitt expansion for the evolution operator kernel of the Schrodinger equation is studied for convergence. It is established that divergence of this expansion which is usually implied for all continuous potentials, excluding ones of the form V(q)=aq^2+bq+c, really takes place only if the coupling constant g is treated as independent variable. But the expansion may be convergent for some kinds of the potentials and for some discrete values of the charge, if the latter is considered as fixed parameter. Class of such potentials is interesting because inside of it the property of discreteness of the charge in the nature is reproduced in the theory in natural way.

Examples of potentials with convergent Schwinger - DeWitt expansion

V. A. Slobodenyuk

Convergence of the Schwinger --- DeWitt expansion for the evolution operator kernel for special class of potentials is studied. It is shown, that this expansion, which is in general case asymptotic, converges for the potentials considered (widely used, in particular, in one-dimensional many-body problems), and besides, convergence takes place only for definite discrete values of the coupling constant. For other values of the charge divergent expansion determines the kernels having essential singularity at origin (beyond usual $δ$-function). If one consider only this class of potentials then one can avoid many problems, connected with asymptotic expansions, and one get the theory with discrete values of the coupling constant that is in correspondence with discreteness of the charge in the nature. This approach can be transmitted into the quantum field theory.

Quantization of the potential amplitude in the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation

B. Ya. Balagurov

A consistent scheme is proposed for quantizing the potential amplitude in the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation in the case of negative energies (lying in the discrete-spectrum domain). The properties of the eigenfunctions ϕ n ( x ) and eigenvalues α n corresponding to zero, small, and large absolute values of energy E < 0 are analyzed. Expansion in the set ϕ n ( x ) is used to develop a regular perturbation theory (for E < 0), and a general expression is found for the Green function associated with the time-independent Schrödinger equation. A similar method is used to solve several physical problems: the polarizability of a weakly bound quantum-mechanical system, the two-center problem, and the tunneling of slow particles through a potential barrier (or over a potential well). In particular, it is shown that the transmission coefficient for slow particles is anomalously large (on the order of unity) in the case of an attractive potential is characterized by certain critical values of well depth. The proposed approach is advantageous in that it does not require the use of continuum states.

General solution of the Schrödinger equation with potential field quantization

Hasan Hüseyin Erbil

A simple procedure has been found for the general solution of the time-independent Schrödinger equation (SE) with the help of quantization of potential area in one dimension without making any approximation. Energy values are not dependent on wave functions. So, to find the energy values, it is enough to find the classic turning points of the potential function. Two different solutions were obtained, namely, symmetric and antisymmetric in bound states. These normalized wave functions are always periodic. It is enough to take the integral of the square root of the potential energy function to find the normalized wave functions. If these calculations cannot be made analytically, they should then be performed by numerical methods. The SE has been solved for a particle in many one-dimension and the spherical symmetric central potential wells as examples. Their energies and normalized wave functions were found as examples. These solutions were also applied to the theories of scattering and alpha decay. The results obtained with the experimental values were compared with the calculated values. One was seen to be very fit.
