Abstract

The fourth, missing example of an exactly solvable complex potential with PT symmetry V(x) = [V(-x)]^* defined on a bent contour and leading, at the real energies, to the Jacobi polynomial wave functions is found in a generalized Hulthen interaction.

Exact Eigenvalues and Eigenfunctions of the Hulthen Potential in the PT-Symmetry for Any Angular Momentum

Sameer M. Ikhdair, R. Sever

The Schrodinger equation with the PT-symmetric Hulthen potential is solved exactly by taking into account effect of the centrifugal barrier for any l-state. Eigenfunctions are obtained in terms of the Jacobi polynomials. The Nikiforov-Uvarov method is used in the computations. Our numerical results are in good agreement with the ones obtained before. Keywords: Energy Eigenvalues and Eigenfunctions; Hulthen potential; PT-symmetry; Nikiforov-Uvarov Method.

Exactly solvable complex PT symmetry potential A[sech(λx) + i tanh(λx)]

Yang Wei

We obtained the exact solutions of the PT symmetric potential V(x) = A[sech(λx) + i tanh(λx)] and found that this system has no bound-state. The PT symmetric potential was first studied in this article, and the handedness effect is shown from reflection coefficients. As the asymptotically non-vanishing imaginary potential component, when the direction of the incident wave is opposite, the transmission coefficient will emerge a complex phase factor.

New set of exactly solvable complex potentials giving the real energies

Miloslav Znojil

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.

An algebraically solvable PT-symmetric potential with broken symmetry

Ferreira, E. M., J. Sesma

The spectrum of a one-dimensional Hamiltonian with potential $V(x)=ix^2$ for negative $x$ and $V(x)=-ix^2$ for positive $x$ is analyzed. The Schrödinger equation is algebraically solvable and the eigenvalues are obtained as the zeros of an expression explicitly given in terms of Gamma functions. The spectrum consists of one real eigenvalue and an infinite set of pairs of complex conjugate eigenvalues.
