One-parameter nonrelativistic supersymmetry for microtubules

The one-parameter nonrelativistic supersymmetry of Mielnik [J. Math. Phys. 25, 3387 (1984)] is applied to the simple supersymmetric model of Caticha [Phys. Rev. A 51, 4264 (1995)] in the form used by Rosu [Phys. Rev. E 55, 2038 (1997)] for microtubules. By this means, we introduce Montroll double-well potentials with singularities that move along the positive or negative traveling direction depending on the sign of the free parameter of Mielnik's method. Possible interpretations of the singularity are either microtubule associated proteins (motors) or structural discontinuities in the arrangement of the tubulin molecules

Second-order linear differential equations associated to a Riccati equation of constant coefficients

We present several second-order linear differential equations that are associated to a particular Riccati equation with only one constant parameter in its coefficients through the technique of supersymmetric factorizations and through a Dirac-like procedure. The latter approach is a minimal extension of the results obtained with the first technique in the sense that it includes up to two more constant parameters

Linear second-order differential equations for barotropic FRW cosmologies

Simple linear second-order differential equations have been written down for FRW cosmologies with barotropic fluids by Faraoni. His results have been extended by Rosu, who employed techniques belonging to nonrelativistic supersymmetry to obtain time-dependent adiabatic indices. Further extensions are presented here using the known connection between the linear second-order differential equations and Dirac-like equations in the same supersymmetric context. These extensions are equivalent to adding an imaginary part to the adiabatic index which is proportional to the mass parameter of the Dirac spinor. The natural physical interpretation of the imaginary part is related to the particular dissipation and instabilities of the barotropic FRW hydrodynamics that are introduced by means of this supersymmetric scheme
