In this paper we propose the idea of expanding the space of variations in standard variational calculations for the energy by considering the wave function $\psi$ to be a functional of a set of functions $\chi: \psi = \psi[\chi]$, rather…

Radial wave functions for power-law potentials are approximated with the help of power-law substitution and explicit summation of the leading constituent WKB series. Our approach reproduces the correct behavior of the wave functions at the…

The recently found shock wave solution in the scalar field model with the field potential $V(\phi)=|\phi|$ is generalized to the case $V(\phi)=|\phi|-{1/2}\lambda\phi^2$. We find two kinds of the shock waves, which are analogous of…
We prove dispersive estimates for solutions to the wave equation with a real-valued potential $V\in L^\infty({\bf R}^n)$, $n\ge 4$, satisfying $V(x)=O(|x|^{-(n+1)/2-\epsilon})$, $|x|>1$, $\epsilon>0$.
In Quantum Hydro-Dynamics the following problem is relevant: let $(\sqrt{\rho},\Lambda) \in H^1(\R^d) \times L^2(\R^d,\R^d)$ be a finite energy hydrodynamics state, i.e. $\Lambda = 0$ when $\rho = 0$ and \begin{equation*} E = \int_{\R^d}…
It has been shown that the traditional matching of wavefunctions between regions of different effective mass (matching {\psi} and (1/m*)\partial{\psi}/\partialx) is not correct, but that one should match (1/\surdm*){\psi} and…
The first part of the paper proves that a subset of the general set of Ermakov-Pinney equations can be obtained by differentiation of a first-order non-linear differential equation. The second part of the paper proves that, similarly, the…
Fermi observed in 1930 that the state of a quantum system may be defined in two different (but equivalent) ways, namely by its wavefunction $\Psi$ or by a certain function $g_F$ on phase space canonically associated with $\Psi$. In this…
