Abstract

In this paper, as a continuation of [Contreras-Astorga A., Escobar-Ruiz A. M. and Linares R., \textit{Phys. Scr.} {\bf99} 025223 (2024)] the one-dimensional quasi-exactly solvable (QES) sextic potential V(qes)(x)=12(νx6+2νμx4+[μ2(4N+3)ν]x2)V^{\rm(qes)}(x) = \frac{1}{2}(\nu\, x^{6} + 2\, \nu\, \mu\,x^{4} + \left[\mu^2-(4N+3)\nu \right]\, x^{2}) is considered. In the cases N=0,14,12,710N=0,\frac{1}{4},\,\frac{1}{2},\,\frac{7}{10} the WKB correction γ=γ(N,n)\gamma=\gamma(N,n) is calculated for the first lowest 50 states n[0,50]n\in [0,\,50] using highly accurate data obtained by the Lagrange Mesh Method. Closed analytical approximations for both γ\gamma and the energy E=E(N,n)E=E(N,n) of the system are constructed. They provide a reasonably relative accuracy Δ|\Delta| with upper bound 103\lesssim 10^{-3} for all the values of (N,n)(N,n) studied. Also, it is shown that the QES Morse potential is shape invariant characterized by a hidden sl2(R)\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{R}) Lie algebra and vanishing WKB correction γ=0\gamma=0.
