By putting two harmonic oscillator potential $x^2$ side by side with a separation $2d$, two exactly solvable piecewise analytic quantum systems with a free parameter $d>0$ are obtained. Due to the mirror symmetry, their eigenvalues $E$ for…

An asymmetric double-well potential is considered, assuming that the minima of the wells are quadratic with a frequency $\omega$ and the difference of the minima is close to a multiple of $\hbar \omega$. A WKB wave function is constructed…

We consider a model of three electrons and one hole confined in a two-dimensional (2D) plane, interacting with one another through Coulomb forces. Using a Ritz variational method we find an upper bound of \approx -0.0112me^4/8\pi^2 \epsilon…

We find Einstein-Yang-Mills (EYM) black hole solutions endowed with massless scalar hair in the presence of a potential $V\left(\phi \right) $ as function of the scalar field $\phi $. Choosing $V\left(\phi \right) =$constant (or zero) sets…

One-dimensional potentials defined by $V^{(S)}(x) =S(S+1) \hbar^2 \pi^2 /[2ma^2\sin^2(\pi x/a)]$ (for integer $S$) arise in the repeated supersymmetrization of the infinite square well, here defined over the region $(0,a)$. We review the…

Two particles can collide inside a nonextremal black hole in such a way that the energy E_{c.m.} in their centre of mass frame becomes as large as one likes. We show that this effect can be understood with the help of a simple analogy with…
