A Power-Liouville Hermite Orbit: Common Spectral Quantization of the Singular Sextic Oscillator and Fractional-Power Potentials

A singular sextic oscillator in the finite-Hermite biconfluent-Heun hierarchy generates an exact four-member power-Liouville Hermite orbit. Power coordinate transformations with the Liouville amplitude map the hierarchy member $N=4$ to four half-line Schrödinger spectral charts while preserving the physical regular-recessive Wronskian zero set under energy-coupling reparametrization. Two charts are the previously studied $x^{2/3}$ and inverse-square-root conditionally integrable potentials; the orbit embeds this known power-dual pair together with the singular sextic and linear-plus-quadratic charts. On the selected physical slice, the degree-five accessory compatibility obstruction vanishes identically, while the transformed Frobenius index reproduces both published fractional-power centrifugal coefficients. The common endpoint condition yields an exact discrete sequence of quartic Sturmian eigencouplings for the sextic oscillator. Independent two-sided shooting confirms representative eigencouplings and node counts. A matched large-action analysis further derives the first matched-endpoint correction within the leading Langer action and improves the Maslov-shifted effective-level approximation. The construction thus connects exact Hermite solvability, energy quantization, coupling quantization, and power duality within a single spectral orbit.

From Heun Class Equations to Painlevé Equations

In the first part of our paper we discuss linear 2nd order differential equations in the complex domain, especially Heun class equations, that is, the Heun equation and its confluent cases. The second part of our paper is devoted to Painlevé I-VI equations. Our philosophy is to treat these families of equations in a unified way. This philosophy works especially well for Heun class equations. We discuss its classification into 5 supertypes, subdivided into 10 types (not counting trivial cases). We also introduce in a unified way deformed Heun class equations, which contain an additional nonlogarithmic singularity. We show that there is a direct relationship between deformed Heun class equations and all Painlevé equations. In particular, Painlevé equations can be also divided into 5 supertypes, and subdivided into 10 types. This relationship is not so easy to describe in a completely unified way, because the choice of the ''time variable'' may depend on the type. We describe unified treatments for several possible ''time variables''.

New solutions of Heun general equation

We show that in four particular cases the derivative of the solution of Heun general equation can be expressed in terms of a solution to another Heun equation. Starting from this property, we use the Gauss hypergeometric functions to construct series solutions to Heun equation for the mentioned cases. Each of the hypergeometric functions involved has correct singular behavior at only one of the singular points of the equation; the sum, however, has correct behavior.

Incomplete beta-function expansions of the solutions to the confluent Heun equation

Several expansions of the solutions to the confluent Heun equation in terms of incomplete Beta functions are constructed. A new type of expansion involving certain combinations of the incomplete Beta functions as expansion functions is introduced. The necessary and sufficient conditions when the derived expansions are terminated, thus generating closed-form solutions, are discussed. It is shown that termination of a Beta-function series solution always leads to a solution that is necessarily an elementary function.

Strong-coupling limit in cold-molecule formation via photoassociation or Feshbach resonance through Nikitin exponential resonance crossing

The strong-coupling limit of molecule formation in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate via two-mode one-color photoassociation or sweep across a Feshbach resonance is examined using a basic nonlinear time-dependent two-state model. For the general class of term-crossing models with constant coupling, a common strategy for attacking the problem is developed based on the reduction of the initial system of semiclassical equations for atom-molecule amplitudes to a third order nonlinear differential equation for the molecular state probability. This equation provides deriving exact solution for a class of periodic level-crossing models. These models reveal much in common with the Rabi problem. Discussing the strong-coupling limit for the general case of variable detuning, the equation is further truncated to a limit first-order nonlinear equation. Using this equation, the strong nonlinearity regime for the first Nikitin exponential-crossing model is analyzed and accurate asymptotic expressions for the nonlinear transition probability to the molecular state are derived. It is shown that, because of a finite final detuning involved, this model displays essential deviations from the Landau-Zener behavior. In particular, it is shown that in the limit of strong coupling the final conversion probability tends to 1/6. Thus, in this case the strong interaction limit is not optimal for molecule formation. We have found that if optimal field intensity is applied the molecular probability is increased up to 1/4 (i.e., the half of the initial atomic population).

Landau-Zener Problem for Trilinear Hamiltonians

We consider a nonlinear version of the Landau-Zener problem, focusing on photoassociation of a Bose-Einstein condensate as a specific example. Contrary to the exponential rate dependence obtained for the linear problem, a series expansion technique indicates that, when the resonance is crossed slowly, the probability for failure of adiabaticity is directly proportional to the rate at which the resonance is crossed.
