Exact Propagators for Soliton Potentials

Using the method of Darboux transformations (or equivalently supersymmetric quantum mechanics) we obtain an explicit expression for the propagator for the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation with a multi-soliton potential.

Darboux transformations of coherent states of the time-dependent singular oscillator

Darboux transformation of both Barut-Girardello and Perelomov coherent states for the time-dependent singular oscillator is studied. In both cases the measure that realizes the resolution of the identity operator in terms of coherent states is found and corresponding holomorphic representation is constructed. For the particular case of a free particle moving with a fixed value of the angular momentum equal to two it is shown that Barut-Giriardello coherent states are more localized at the initial time moment while the Perelomov coherent states are more stable with respect to time evolution. It is also illustrated that Darboux transformation may keep unchanged this different time behavior.

Intertwining technique for the one-dimensional stationary Dirac equation

The technique of differential intertwining operators (or Darboux transformation operators) is systematically applied to the one-dimensional Dirac equation. The following aspects are investigated: factorization of a polynomial of Dirac Hamiltonians, quadratic supersymmetry, closed extension of transformation operators, chains of transformations, and finally particular cases of pseudoscalar and scalar potentials. The method is widely illustrated by numerous examples.

Phase shift effective range expansion from supersymmetric quantum mechanics

Supersymmetric or Darboux transformations are used to construct local phase equivalent deep and shallow potentials for $\ell \neq 0$ partial waves. We associate the value of the orbital angular momentum with the asymptotic form of the potential at infinity which allows us to introduce adequate long-distance transformations. The approach is shown to be effective in getting the correct phase shift effective range expansion. Applications are considered for the $^1P_1$ and $^1D_2$ partial waves of the neutron-proton scattering.

Nonlocal supersymmetric deformations of periodic potentials

Irreducible second-order Darboux transformations are applied to the periodic Schrodinger's operators. It is shown that for the pairs of factorization energies inside of the same forbidden band they can create new non-singular potentials with periodicity defects and bound states embedded into the spectral gaps. The method is applied to the Lame and periodic piece-wise transparent potentials. An interesting phenomenon of translational Darboux invariance reveals nonlocal aspects of the supersymmetric deformations.

The Phenomenon of Darboux Displacements

For a class of Schrodinger Hamiltonians the supersymmetry transformations can degenerate to simple coordinate displacements. We examine this phenomenon and show that it distinguishes the Weierstrass potentials including the one-soliton wells and periodic Lame functions. A supersymmetric sense of the addition formula for the Weierstrass functions is elucidated.

Discrete supersymmetries of the Schrodinger equation and non-local exactly solvable potentials

Using an isomorphism between Hilbert spaces $L^2$ and $\ell^{2}$ we consider Hamiltonians which have tridiagonal matrix representations (Jacobi matrices) in a discrete basis and an eigenvalue problem is reduced to solving a three term difference equation. Technique of intertwining operators is applied to creating new families of exactly solvable Jacobi matrices. It is shown that any thus obtained Jacobi matrix gives rise to a new exactly solvable non-local potential of the Schroedinger equation. We also show that the algebraic structure underlying our approach corresponds to supersymmetry. Supercharge operators acting in the space $\ell^{2}\times \ell^{2} $ are introduced which together with a matrix form of the superhamiltonian close the simplest superalgebra.

Phase equivalent chains of Darboux transformations in scattering theory

We propose a procedure based on phase equivalent chains of Darboux transformations to generate local potentials satisfying the radial Schrödinger equation and sharing the same scattering data. For potentials related by a chain of transformations an analytic expression is derived for the Jost function. It is shown how the same system of $S$-matrix poles can be differently distributed between poles and zeros of a Jost function which corresponds to different potentials with equal phase shifts. The concept of shallow and deep phase equivalent potentials is analyzed in connection with distinct distributions of poles. It is shown that phase equivalent chains do not violate the Levinson theorem. The method is applied to derive a shallow and a family of deep phase equivalent potentials describing the $^1S_0$ partial wave of the nucleon-nucleon scattering.

Darboux transformations for quasi-exactly solvable Hamiltonians

We construct new quasi-exactly solvable one-dimensional potentials through Darboux transformations. Three directions are investigated: Reducible and two types of irreducible second-order transformations. The irreducible transformations of the first type give singular intermediate potentials and the ones of the second type give complex-valued intermediate potentials while final potentials are meaningful in all cases. These developments are illustrated on the so-called radial sextic oscillator.

Coherent States for Transparent Potentials

Darboux transformation operators that produce multisoliton potentials are analyzed as operators acting in a Hilbert space. Isometric correspondence between Hilbert spaces of states of a free particle and a particle moving in a soliton potential is established. It is shown that the Darboux transformation operator is unbounded but closed and can not realize an isometric mapping between Hilbert spaces. A quasispectral representation of such an operator in terms of continuum bases is obtained. Different types of coherent states of a multisoliton potential are introduced. Measures that realize the resolution of the identity operator in terms of the projectors on the coherent states vectors are calculated. It is shown that when these states are related with free particle coherent states by a bounded symmetry operator the measure is defined by ordinary functions and in the case of a semibounded symmetry operator the measure is defined by a generalized function.

New possibilities for supersymmetry breakdown in quantum mechanics and second order irreducible Darboux transformations

New types of irreducible second order Darboux transformations for the one dimensional Schroedinger equation are described. The main feature of such transformations is that the transformation functions have the eigenvalues grater then the ground state energy of the initial (or reference) Hamiltonian. When such a transformation is presented as a chain of two first order transformations, an intermediate potential is singular and therefore intermediate Hamiltonian can not be Hermitian while the final potential is regular and the final Hamiltonian is Hermitian. Second derivative supersymmetric quantum mechanical model based on a transformation of this kind exhibits properties inherent to models with exact and broken supersymmetry at once.

Supersymmetric quantum mechanical model of Calogero-Sutherlend singular oscillator is constructed. Supercoherent states are defined with the help of supergroup displacement operator. They are proper states of a fermionic annihilation operator. Their coordinate and superholomorphic representations are considered. The supermeasure on superunit disc which realizes the resolution of the unity is calculated. The cases of exact and spontaneously broken supersymmetry are treated separately. As an example the supersymmetric partners of the input Hamiltonian expressed in terms of elementary functions are given.

Distortion of a Phase Space Under the Darboux Transformation

The Darboux transformation operator technique is applied to construct exactly solvable anharmonic singular oscillator potentials and to study their coherent states. Classical system corresponding to a transformed quantum system is constructed with the help of the coherent states technique. It is shown that at classical level the Darboux transformation may be treated as a transformation of Kähler potential which leads to a distortion of the initial phase space.

Time Dependent Supersymmetry in Quantum Mechanics

The well-known supersymmetric constructions such as Witten's supersymmetric quantum mechanics, Spiridonov-Rubakov parasupersymmetric quantum mechanics, and higher-derivative SUSY of Andrianov et al. are extended to the nonstationary Schrödinger equation. All these constructions are based on the time-dependent Darboux transformation. The superalgebra over the conventional Lie algebra is constructed. Examples of time-dependent exactly solvable potentials are given.

Supersymmetry and Supercoherent States of a Nonrelativistic Free Particle

Coordinate atypical representation of the orthosymplectic superalgebra osp(2/2) in a Hilbert superspace of square integrable functions constructed in a special way is given. The quantum nonrelativistic free particle Hamiltonian is an element of this superalgebra which turns out to be a dynamical superalgebra for this system. The supercoherent states, defined by means of a supergroup displacement operator, are explicitly constructed. These are the coordinate representation of the known atypical abstract super group $OSp(2/2)$ coherent states. We interpret obtained results from the classical mechanics viewpoint as a model of classical particle which is immovable in the even sector of the phase superspace and is in rectilinear movement (in the appropriate coordinate system) in its odd sector.
