We derive the Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA) equations for the Schr\"odinger equation with an arbitrary polynomial potential and a regular singular (simple and double pole) term. The TBA equations provide a non-trivial generalization of…
The supersymmetric WKB (SWKB) condition is supposed to be exact for all known exactly solvable quantum mechanical systems with the shape invariance. Recently, it was claimed that the SWKB condition was not exact for the extended radial…
In the WKB approximation the $\nabla^2S$ term in Schrodinger's equation is subordinate to the |\nabla S|^2 term. Here we study an anti-WKB approximation in which the $\nabla^2 S$ term dominates (after a guess for S is supplied). Our…

We consider initial value problems for $\varepsilon^2\,\varphi''+a(x)\,\varphi=0$ in the highly oscillatory regime, i.e., with $a(x)>0$ and $0<\varepsilon\ll 1$. We discuss their efficient numerical integration on coarse grids, but still…
The SWKB quantization condition is an exact quantization condition for the conventional shape-invariant potentials. On the other hand, this condition equation does not hold for other known solvable systems. The origin of the (non-)exactness…
