An efficient numerical method for solving Schrödinger's and Poisson's equations using a basis set of cubic B-splines is investigated. The method is applied to find both the wave functions and the corresponding eigenenergies of low-dimensional semiconductor structures. The computational efficiency of the method is explicitly shown by the multiresolution analysis, non-uniform grid construction and imposed boundary conditions by applying it to well-known single electron potentials. The method compares well with the results of analytical solutions and of the finite difference method.

Prolongation structures, backlund transformations and painleve analysis of nonlinear evolution equations
Yurduşen, İsmet; Karasu, Emine Ayşe; Department of Physics (2004)
The Wahlquist-Estabrook prolongation technique and the Painleve analysis, used for testing the integrability of nonlinear evolution equations, are considered and applied both to the Drinfel'd-Sokolov system of equations, indeed known to be one of the coupled Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) systems, and Kersten-Krasil'shchik coupled KdV-mKdV equations. Some new Backlund transformations for the Drinfel'd-Sokolov system of equations are also found.
Exact supersymmetric solution of Schrödinger equation for some potentials
Aktaş, Metin; Sever, Ramazan; Department of Physics (2005)
Exact solution of the Schrödinger equation with some potentials is obtained. The normal and supersymmetric cases are considered. Deformed ring-shaped potential is solved in the parabolic and spherical coordinates. By taking appropriate values for the parameter q, similar results are obtained for Hulthén and exponential type screened potentials. Similarly, Morse, Pöschl-Teller and Hulthén potentials are solved for the supersymmetric case. Supersymmetric solution of PT-/non-PT-symmetric and non-Hermitian Mors...
Hamilton-Jacobi theory of continuous systems
Güler, Y. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1987-8)
The Hamilton-Jacobi partial differnetial equation for classical field systems is obtained in a 5n-dimensional phase space and it is integrated by the method of characteristics. Space-time partial derivatives of Hamilton’s principal functionsS μ (Φ i ,x ν ) (μ,ν=1,2,3,4) are identified as the energy-momentum tensor of the system.
Quantum mechanics on curved hypersurfaces
Olpak, Mehmet Ali; Tekin, Bayram; Department of Physics (2010)
In this work, Schrödinger and Dirac equations will be examined in geometries that confine the particles to hypersurfaces. For this purpose, two methods will be considered. The first method is the thin layer method which relies on explicit use of geometrical relations and the squeezing of a certain coordinate of space (or spacetime). The second is Dirac’s quantization procedure involving the modification of canonical quantization making use of the geometrical constraints. For the Dirac equation, only the fir...
EXACT BOUND STATES OF THE D-DIMENSIONAL KLEIN-GORDON EQUATION WITH EQUAL SCALAR AND VECTOR RING-SHAPED PSEUDOHARMONIC POTENTIAL
IKHDAİR, SAMEER; Sever, Ramazan (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2008-09-01)
We present the exact solution of the Klein Gordon equation in D-dimensions in the presence of the equal scalar and vector pseudoharmonic potential plus the ring-shaped potential using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method. We obtain the exact bound state energy levels and the corresponding eigen functions for a spin-zero particles. We also find that the solution for this ring-shaped pseudoharmonic potential can be reduced to the three-dimensional (3D) pseudoharmonic solution once the coupling constant of the angular ...
