The mergings of energy levels associated with the breaking of PT symmetry in the model of Bender and Boettcher, and in its generalisation to incorporate a centrifugal term, are analysed in detail. Even though conventional WKB techniques…
We show that TBA equations defined by the BPS spectrum of $5d$ $\mathcal{N}=1$ $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills on $S^1\times \mathbb{R}^4$ encode the q-Painlev\'e III$_3$ equation. We find a fine-tuned stratum in the physical moduli space of the theory…
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…
A singular perturbation problem called WKB equation (Eq) $h^2u(x,h)-Q(x)u(x,h)=0$ is studied. $h>0$ is a small parameter. Investigation of (Eq) has long history. Recently it has developed by a new method named "Exact WKB Analysis" based on…
It has been shown that the cases of the JWKB formulae in 1--dim QM quantizing the energy levels exactly are results of essentially one global symmetry of both potentials and their corresponding Stokes graphs. Namely, this is the invariance…
A fully analytical description of the allowed $\beta$ spectrum shape is given in view of ongoing and planned measurements. Its study forms an invaluable tool in the search for physics beyond the standard electroweak model and the weak…
The explanation of the first-order Stark effect in hydrogen by Epstein and Schwarzschild in 1916 was seen as a great success for the old quantum theory. Yet, it also revealed some serious limitations of the theory. To recover the…
A novel approach to study electroweak physics at one-loop level in generic ${\rm SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y}$ theories is introduced. It separates the 1-loop corrections into two pieces: process specific ones from vertex and box contributions,…
Exactness of the lowest order supersymmetric WKB (SWKB) quantization condition $\int^{x_2}_{x_1} \sqrt{E-\omega^2(x)} dx = n \hbar \pi$, for certain potentials, is examined, using complex integration technique. Comparison of the above…
We construct an effective Quantum Field Theory for the wrapping effects in 1+1 dimensional models of factorised scattering. The recently developed graph-theoretical approach to TBA gives the perturbative desctiption of this QFT. For the…
We use the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization approach in the context of constituent quark models. This method provides, for the Cornell potential, analytical formulae for the energy spectra which closely approximate numerical exact calculations…
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…
In the framework of the deformed quantum mechanics with minimal length, we consider the motion of a non-relativistic particle in a homogeneous external field. We find the integral representation for the physically acceptable wave function…
We describe the exact WKB method from the point of view of abelianization, both for Schr\"odinger operators and for their higher-order analogues (opers). The main new example which we consider is the "$T_3$ equation," an order $3$ equation…
The stationary 1D Schr\"odinger equation with a polynomial potential $V(q)$ of degree N is reduced to a system of exact quantization conditions of Bohr-Sommerfeld form. They arise from bilinear (Wronskian) functional relations pairing…
We study various non-perturbative approaches to the quantization of the Seiberg-Witten curve of ${\cal N}=2$, $SU(2)$ super Yang-Mills theory, which is closely related to the modified Mathieu operator. The first approach is based on the…
Within a fully relativistic framework, the one-loop self-energy correction for a bound electron is derived and extended to incorporate the effects of external thermal radiation. In a series of previous works, it was shown that in quantum…
Regarding the limit hbar-->0 as the classical limit of quantum mechanics seems to be silly because hbar is a definite constant of physics, but it was successfully used in the derivation of the WKB approximation. A superseded version of the…
We discuss the exact quantization of general one-dimensional potentials in view of the exact-WKB formalism. Building on our previous work, we perform analytic continuations across different sectors via the complexification to the spectral…
Hawking radiation is studied for arbitrary scalars, fermions, and spin-1 bosons, using a tunneling approach, to every order in $\hbar$ but ignoring back-reaction effects. It is shown that the additional quantum terms yield no new…
