An inhomogeneous Kaluza-Klein compactification to four dimensions, followed by a conformal transformation, results in a system with position dependent mass (PDM). This origin of a PDM is quite different from the condensed matter one. A…
In position dependent mass (PDM) problems, the quantum dynamics of the associated systems have been understood well in the literature for particular orderings. However, no efforts seem to have been made to solve such PDM problems for…
We study the eigen-energy and eigen-function of a quantum particle acquiring the probability density-dependent effective mass (DDEM) in harmonic oscillators. Instead of discrete eigen-energies, continuous energy spectra are revealed due to…
