Separability of Solutions to a Schr?dinger Equation

We discuss separability of solutions to a Schr?dinger equation that describes a composite quantum system and give some kinds of Hamiltonians H(t) such that the solution to Schr?dinger equation induced by H(t) is separable at any time provided that it is separable at t = 0. For example, we prove that if the Hamiltonian H is time-independent and equals to the product PA■PB of two projections on the subsystems KAand KB, respectively, then the state |ψ(t) of the composite system starting from a separable initial |ψ(0) = |ψA■|ψB is separable for all t ∈ [0, T] if and only if either |ψA is an eigenstate of PA, or |ψB is an eigenstate of PB.

Darboux transformation and elementary exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation

Darboux transformation is applied to three classical potentials, namely the harmonic oscillator, effective Coulomb and Morse potentials to generate exactly solvable potentials of elementary form. For every potential, the isospectral families of potentials are constructed. For almost all potentials, a set of normalized discrete spectrum wave functions is given.     

Form-Preserving Transformations for Hamiltonians with Linear Terms in the Momentum

No Heading We consider Hamiltonians in (1+1) dimensions that contain linear terms in the momentum, resembling systems under the influence of a vector potential. For the time-dependent Schr?dinger equation (TDSE) associated with such Hamiltonians, we obtain the most general form-preserving transformation. This transformation is a valuable tool for tracking down solvable potentials and exact wave-functions of the TDSE.     

Non-linear polarization and chiral effects in birefringent solitons

Novel effects resulting from joint action of chirality and non-linearity are discussed using a basic equation describing the temporal evolution of fields in a chiral medium with Kerr non-linearity. The spatial chirality effect is characterized through the Born-Fedorov formalism. Our simulations are based on the split-step Fourier method and the solution of the Stokes parameters. The numerical results show the chiral effect on solitons with circular polarization and mixed polarization spatial solitons.     

Matrix factorization of the mode converter

Based on the basic properties of the reciprocal symmetrical matrix, a method is proposed, which permits us to factorize the transfer matrix of the mode converter into a product of reciprocal symmetrical matrices. The procedure is simple and is suited for computer calculations. Some factorization examples are given and illustrated. The results are useful for the design of different types of the mode converter to satisfy practical applications.     

Relativistic remnants in the reduction of the Bethe-Salpeter equation to the Schrödinger equation

Following Salpeter, the Bethe-Salpeter equation for the bound system of two oppositely charged particles is reduced to a Schrödinger equation for each of the following cases: (a) both particles are spin 1/2 particles, (b) one particle is a spinor while the other is spinless, and (c) both particles are spinless. It is shown that ife is the magnitude of charge carried by each of the particles whose masses are set equal to the electron and proton masses then, strictly speaking, only in case (a) do we obtain the familiar Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom. The latter equation is recovered in the other two cases only if relativistic remnants—terms of the order of 10^?5 and smaller—are neglected in comparison with unity. Attention is drawn to a situation where such remnants may not be negligibly small, viz. the problem of confinement of quarks.     

Closed-form solutions of the Schrödinger equation for a particle on the torus

Two results on the Schrödinger equation for a particle on the surface of a torus are obtained: In the first part of this note closed-form zero-energy solutions for a free particle are given. In the second part we show for which potentials depending only on the polar angle the Schrodinger equation becomes exactly solvable.     

The Liouville integrable coupling system of the m-AKNS hierarchy and its Hamiltonian structure

In this paper a type of 9-dimensional vector loop algebra \tilde{F} is constructed, which is devoted to establish an isospectral problem. It follows that a Liouville integrable coupling system of the m-AKNS hierarchy is obtained by employing the Tu scheme, whose Hamiltonian structure is worked out by making use of constructed quadratic identity. The method given in the paper can be used to obtain many other integrable couplings and their Hamiltonian structures.     

An application of hypervirial perturbation theory to calculate energy eigenvalues of the Morse potential for various diatomic molecules

The Schrödinger equation with the potentialV(r)=D[exp(?2β(r?r _e))?2exp(?β(r?r _e))] is treated in the framework of the hypervirial-renormalization parameter scheme. The energy eigenvalues of various eigenstates for different molecules are calculated.     

On the stability of time-harmonic localized states in a disordered nonlinear medium

We study the problem of localization in a disordered one-dimensional nonlinear medium modeled by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Devillard and Souillard have shown that almost every time-harmonic solution of this random PDE exhibits localization. We consider the temporal stability of such time-harmonic solutions and derive bounds on the location of any unstable eigenvalues. By direct numerical determination of the eigenvalues we show that these time-harmonic solutions are typically unstable, and find the distribution of eigenvalues in the complex plane. The distributions are distinctly different for focusing and defocusing nonlinearities. We argue further that these instabilities are connected with resonances in a Schrödinger problem, and interpret the earlier numerical simulations of Caputo, Newell, and Shelley, and of Shelley in terms of these instabilities. Finally, in the defocusing case we are able to construct a family of asymptotic solutions which includes the stable limiting time-harmonic state observed in the simulations of Shelley.     

A general method for constructing vector integrable lattice systems

A method for generating vector-value integrable analogies of integrable lattice systems or integrable differential-difference equations is presented. The basic ingredient of the method is to insert permutation matrices. We formulate the zero-curvature representations and Hamiltonian structures of the resulting vector lattice systems. The effectiveness of the method is illustrated using some examples such as the Volterra lattice, the Belov–Chaltikian lattice, the Ablowitz–Ladik lattice and the Heisenberg ferromagnet lattice.     

The symmetry group of the quantum harmonic oscillator in an electric field

In this paper we present two results. First, we derive the most general group of infinitesimal transformations for the Schrödinger Equation of the general time-dependent Harmonic Oscillator in an electric field. The infinitesimal generators and the commutation rules of this group are presented and the group structure is identified. From here it is easy to construct a set of unitary operators that transform the general Hamiltonian to a much simpler form. The relationship between squeezing and dynamical symmetries is also stressed. The second result concerns the application of these group transformations to obtain solutions of the Schrödinger equation in a time-dependent potential. These solutions are believed to be useful for describing particles confined in boxes with moving boundaries. The motion of the walls is indeed governed by the time-dependent frequency function. The applications of these results to non-rigid quantum dots and tunnelling through fluctuating barriers is also discussed, both in the presence and in the absence of a time-dependent electric field. The differences and similarities between both cases are pointed out.     

A real nonlinear integrable couplings of continuous soliton hierarchy and its Hamiltonian structure

Some integrable coupling systems of existing papers are linear integrable couplings. In the Letter, beginning with Lax pairs from special non-semisimple matrix Lie algebras, we establish a scheme for constructing real nonlinear integrable couplings of continuous soliton hierarchy. A direct application to the AKNS spectral problem leads to a novel nonlinear integrable couplings, then we consider the Hamiltonian structures of nonlinear integrable couplings of AKNS hierarchy with the component-trace identity.

A note on the harmonic plus inverse-harmonic potential in quantum mechanics

The ground state of a class of potentials described byV(x)=a ₂₀ x ²+a ₁/x ² is investigated. This potential possesses some distinct features like that of a symmetric double-well potential, and can be used in modelling the fusion process of two identical nuclei as well.     

Hypervirial perturbation theory for eigenenergies for two types of atomic potentials

Eigenenergies are calculated for the potentialsV ₁(r)=−(a/r)[1+(1+br)e^−2br ] andV ₂(r)=−(v/r)[1 −λr(1−Z ⁻¹)(1+λr)⁻¹], using renormalized series technique. Accurate results produced here for various eigenstates agree with those available in the literature.     

Rigorous Solutions for the One-Dimensional Hartmann Potential in the Quantum Phase-Space Representation

The rigorous solutions of the Schrödinger equation with the one-dimensional Hartmann potential for a particle are solved and discussed within the framework of the quantum phase space representation established by Torres-Vega and Frederick. For a simple example, the uncertainty principle for the quantum probability density functions is revealed in phase space representation.     

Inequalities for Means of Chords, with Application to Isoperimetric Problems

We consider a pair of isoperimetric problems arising in physics. The first concerns a Schrödinger operator in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)We consider a pair of isoperimetric problems arising in physics. The first concerns a Schr?dinger operator in with an attractive interaction supported on a closed curve Γ, formally given by −Δ−αδ(x−Γ); we ask which curve of a given length maximizes the ground state energy. In the second problem we have a loop-shaped thread Γ in , homogeneously charged but not conducting, and we ask about the (renormalized) potential-energy minimizer. Both problems reduce to purely geometric questions about inequalities for mean values of chords of Γ. We prove an isoperimetric theorem for p-means of chords of curves when p ≤ 2, which implies in particular that the global extrema for the physical problems are always attained when Γ is a circle. The letter concludes with a discussion of the p-means of chords when p > 2.     

The Schro^edinger equation for a Kirchhoff elastic rod with noncircular cross section

The extended Schro^edinger equation for the Kirchhoff elastic rod with noncircular cross section is derived using the concept of complex rigidity. As a mathematical model of supercoiled DNA, the SchrSdinger equation for the rod with circular cross section is a special case of the equation derived in this paper. In the twistless case of the rod when the principal axes of the cross section are coincident with the Frenet coordinates of the centreline, the Schro^edinger equation is transformed to the Dulling equation. The equilibrium and stability of the twistless rod are discussed, and a bifurcation phenomenon is presented.
