Equivalence of two alternative approaches to Schrodinger equations
Abstract
Description
Recently developed simple approach for the exact/approximate solution of Schrodinger equations with constant/position-dependent mass, in which the potential is considered as in the perturbation theory, is shown to be equivalent to the one leading to the construction of exactly solvable potentials via the solution of second-order differential equations in terms of known special functions. The formalism in the former solves difficulties encountered in the latter in revealing the corrections explicitly to the unperturbed piece of the solutions whereas the other obviate cumbersome procedures used in the calculations of the former.
