Using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method which is based on solving the second-order differential equations, we firstly analyzed the energy spectra and eigenfunctions of the Woods-Saxon potential. In the framework of the PT-symmetric quantum mechanics, we secondly solved the time-independent Schrodinger equation for the PT and non-PT-symmetric version of the potential. It is shown that the discrete energy eigenvalues of the non-PT-symmetric potential consist of the real and imaginary parts, but the PT-symmetric one has a real spectrum. Results are obtained for s-states only.

Pseudospin and spin symmetry in Dirac-Morse problem with a tensor potential AYDOĞDU, OKTAY; Sever, Ramazan (Elsevier BV, 2011-09-14) Under the conditions of the pseudospin and spin symmetry, approximate analytical solutions of the Dirac-Morse problem with Coulomb-like tensor potential are presented. The energy eigenvalue equations are found and corresponding radial wave functions are obtained in terms of confluent hypergeometric functions. The energy eigenvalues are calculated numerically in the absence and presence of the tensor potential. We also investigate the contribution of the potential parameters to the energy splitting of the ps...
HIGHER-DERIVATIVE EFFECTIVE YANG-MILLS THEORY AND STATIC SPHERICALLY SYMMETRICAL FIELD CONFIGURATIONS BASKAL, S; DERELI, T (IOP Publishing, 1993-04-01) The variational field equations and the covariantly conserved energy-momentum tensor of a higher-derivative effective Yang-Mills theory are given. A class of static spherically symmetric gauge field configurations that follow from the Wu-Yang ansatz is considered.
Nonlocal regularisation of noncommutative field theories Govindarajan, T. R.; Kürkcüoğlu, Seçkin; PANERO, Marco (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2006-08-10) We study noncommutative field theories, which are inherently nonlocal, using a Poincare-invariant regularisation scheme which yields an effective, nonlocal theory for energies below a cutoff scale. After discussing the general features and the peculiar advantages of this regularisation scheme for theories defined in noncommutative spaces, we focus our attention on the particular case when the noncommutativity parameter is inversely proportional to the square of the cutoff, via a dimensionless parameter eta....
Polynomial solutions of the Schrodinger equation for the generalized Woods-Saxon potential Berkdemir, C; Berkdemir, A; Sever, Ramazan (American Physical Society (APS), 2005-08-01) The bound state energy eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenfunctions of the generalized Woods-Saxon potential are obtained by means of Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method. Certain bound states of the Schrodinger equation for the potential are calculated analytically and the wave functions are found in terms of the Jacobi polynomials. It is shown that the results are in good agreement with those obtained previously.
Pseudospin and Spin Symmetric Solutions of the Dirac Equation: Hellmann Potential, Wei-Hua Potential, Varshni Potential Arda, Altug; Sever, Ramazan (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2014-03-01) Approximate analytical solutions of the Dirac equation are obtained for the Hellmann potential, the Wei-Hua potential, and the Varshni potential with any K-value for the cases having the Dirac equation pseudospin and spin symmetries. Closed forms of the energy eigenvalue equations and the spinor wave functions are obtained by using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method and some tables are given to see the dependence of the energy eigenvalues on different quantum number pairs (n, K).
