We present one dimensional potentials $V(x)= V_0[e^{2|x|/a}-1]$ as solvable models of a well $(V_0>0)$ and a barrier ($V_0<0$). Apart from being new addition to solvable models, these models are instructive for finding bound and scattering…

In this paper, we show that the ground-state of many-body Schr\"odinger operators for electrons in one dimension is non-degenerate. More precisely, we consider Schr\"odinger operators of the form $H_N(v,w) = -\Delta + \sum_{i\neq j}^N…
