We demonstrate that large class of PT-symmetric complex potentials, which can have isospectral real partner potentials, possess two different superpotentials. In the parameter domain, where the superpotential is unique, the spectrum is real…

We investigate a one-dimensional quantum system with a self-similar arrangement of delta-function potential barriers, exhibiting discrete scale invariance. The singular potential induces kinematically enforced symmetry breaking at $x=0$,…
Calogero-Sutherland models of $N$ identical particles on a circle are deformed away from hermiticity but retaining a $\cal PT$ symmetry. The interaction potential gets completely regularized, which adds to the energy spectrum an infinite…
The self-similar potentials are formulated in terms of the shape-invariance. Based on it, a coherent state associated with the shape-invariant potentials is calculated in case of the self-similar potentials. It is shown that it reduces to…
We consider the spherical reduction of the rational Calogero model (of type $A_{n-1}$, without the center of mass) as a maximally superintegrable quantum system. It describes a particle on the $(n{-}2)$-sphere in a very special potential. A…
A pair of scattering potentials are called $\alpha$-equivalent if they have identical scattering properties for incident plane waves with wavenumber $k\leq\alpha$ (energy $k^2\leq\alpha^2$.) We use a recently developed multidimensional…
Alpha($^{4}$He)-cluster models have often been used to describe light nuclei. Towards the application to multi-cluster systems involving heavy clusters, we study the relative wave functions of the $\alpha+^{16}$O and $\alpha+^{40}$Ca…
We analyze transition potentials $(V(r) \stackrel{r\sim 0}{\rightarrow} {\alpha r^{-2}})$ in non-relativistic quantum mechanics using the techniques of supersymmetry. For the range $-1/4 < \alpha < 3/4$, the eigenvalue problem becomes…
We establish a simple algebraic relationship between the energy eigenstates of the rational Calogero-Sutherland model with harmonic oscillator and Coulomb-like potentials. We show that there is an underlying SU(1,1) algebra in both of these…
It has recently been shown that spherically symmetric potentials of finite range are uniquely determined by the part of their phase shifts at a fixed energy level $k^2>0$. However, numerical experiments show that two quite different…
The variable phase approach to potential scattering with regular spherically symmetric potentials satisfying (\ref{1e}), and studied by Calogero in his book$^{5}$, is revisited, and we show directly that it gives the absolute definition of…
Within the standard quantum mechanics a q-deformation of the simplest N=2 supersymmetry algebra is suggested. Resulting physical systems do not have conserved charges and degeneracies in the spectra. Instead, superpartner Hamiltonians are…

It is shown the role of a scalar potential in the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for a steady-state two-particle system is equivalent to an isometric entanglement of the position coordinates of the particles in space and time. The entangled…
We formulate and study the set of coupled nonlinear differential equations which define a series of shape invariant potentials which repeats after a cycle of $p$ iterations. These cyclic shape invariant potentials enlarge the limited…
