A generalization of the concept of PT-symmetric Hamiltonians H=p^2+V(x) is described. It uses analytic potentials V(x) (with singularities) and a generalized concept of PT-symmetric asymptotic boundary conditions. Nontrivial toboggans are…
Quantum systems with real energies generated by an apparently non-Hermitian Hamiltonian may re-acquire the consistent probabilistic interpretation via an ad hoc metric which specifies the set of observables in the updated Hilbert space of…
Wave functions describing quantum toboggans with two branch points (QT2) are defined along complex contours of coordinates which spiral around these branch points. The classification of QT2 is found in terms of certain ``winding…
In supersymmetric quantum mechanics the emergence of a singularity may lead to the breakdown of isospectrality between partner potentials. One of the regularization recipes is based on a topologically nontrivial, multisheeted complex…
Among all the PT-symmetric potentials defined on complex coordinate contours C(s), the name "quantum toboggan" is reserved for those whose C(s) winds around a singularity and lives on at least two different Riemann sheets. An enriched menu…
Even if the motion of a quantum (quasi-)particle proceeds along a left-right-symmetric (PT-symmetric) curved path in complex plane, the spectrum of bound states may remain physical, i.e., real and bounded below). We propose a…
At the lower edge of the energy continuum the birth of an isolated quantum bound state is studied as caused by an infinitesimally small change of the interaction. In our model a single, asymptotically free massive quantum particle is…

This work is devoted to the study of some exactly solvable quantum problems of four, five and six bodies moving on the line. We solve completely the corresponding stationary Schr\"odinger equation for these systems confined in an harmonic…
We present a new exactly solvable quantum problem for which the Schroedinger equation allows for separation of variables in oblate spheroidal coordinates. Namely, this is the quantum mechanical two Coulomb centers problem for the case of…
A contradiction arises when applying standard boundary conditions to a simple quantum rotator with a single coordinate. New boundary conditions for the Schroedinger equation are proposed that involve only gauge invariant quantities, and…
The model of a two-electron quantum dot, confined to move in a two dimensional flat space, is revisited. Generally, it is argued that the solutions of this model obtained by solving a biconfluent Heun equation have some limitations. In…
For quantum (quasi)particles living on complex toboggan-shaped curves which spread over N Riemann sheets the approximate evaluation of topology-controlled bound-state energies is shown feasible. In a cubic-oscillator model the low-lying…
A unified approach, for solving a wide class of single and many-body quantum problems, commonly encountered in literature is developed based on a recently proposed method for finding solutions of linear differential equations. Apart from…
A particle confined to an impassable box is a paradigmatic and exactly solvable one-dimensional quantum system modeled by an infinite square well potential. Here we explore some of its infinitely many generalizations to two dimensions,…

The bound state energy eigenvalues for the two-dimensional Kepler problem are found to be degenerate. This "accidental" degeneracy is due to the existence of a two-dimensional analogue of the quantum-mechanical Runge-Lenz vector.…
We show how to use boundary conditions to drive the evolution on a Quantum Mechanical system. We will see how this problem can be expressed in terms of a time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation. In particular we will need the theory of…
We generalize the twisted quantum double model of topological orders in two dimensions to the case with boundaries by systematically constructing the boundary Hamiltonians. Given the bulk Hamiltonian defined by a gauge group $G$ and a…
Sturmian bound states emerging at a fixed energy and numbered by a complete set of real eigencouplings are considered. For Sturm-Schroedinger equations which are manifestly non-Hermitian we outline the way along which the correct…
