The association of the variational method with supersymmetric quantum mechanics through an ansatz for the superpotential is reviewed and the approximate energy spectra of non-exactly solvable potentials, such like the Hulthen, the Morse and…
A description of eigensubspaces of the cosine and sine operators is presented. The spectrum of each of these two operator consists of two eigenvalues (1,\,-1) and their eigensubspaces are infinite--dimensional. There are many possible bases…

The one-dimensional Schrodinger equation for the potential $x^6+\alpha x^2 +l(l+1)/x^2$ has many interesting properties. For certain values of the parameters l and alpha the equation is in turn supersymmetric (Witten), quasi-exactly…
We exploit the relation among irreducible Riemannian globally symmetric spaces (IRGS) and supergravity theories in 3, 4 and 5 space-time dimensions. IRGS appear as scalar manifolds of the theories, as well as moduli spaces of the various…
We describe special supersymmetric gauge theories in three, five, seven and nine dimensions, whose compactification on two-, four-, six- and eight-folds produces a supersymmetric quantum mechanics on moduli spaces of holomorphic bundles…
This article considers the classification of matrix superpotentials that corresponds to exactly solvable systems of Schrodinger equations. Superpotentials of the following form are considered: $W_k = kQ + P + \frac1kR$, where $k$ ---…
We analyse some PT-symmetric oscillators with $T_{d}$ symmetry that depend on a potential parameter $g$. We calculate the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for each irreducible representation and for a range of values of $g$. Pairs of…
The method of potential envelopes is used to analyse the bound state spectrum of the Schroedinger Hamiltonian H=-\Delta+V(r), where the Hellmann potential is given by V(r) = -A/r + Be^{-Cr}/r, A and C are positive, and B can be positive or…
We consider supersymmetry algebras in arbitrary spacetime dimension and signature. Minimal and maximal superalgebras are given for single and extended supersymmetry. It is seen that the supersymmetric extensions are uniquely determined by…
Eigenfunctions of the Schrodinger equation with the Coulomb potential in the imaginary Lobachevsky space are studied in two coordinate systems admitting solutions in terms of hypergeometric functions. Normalization and coefficients of…
We consider a product of an arbitrary number of independent rectangular Gaussian random matrices. We derive the mean densities of its eigenvalues and singular values in the thermodynamic limit, eventually verified numerically. These…
An extended class of N=2 locally supersymmetric invariants with higher-derivative couplings based on full superspace integrals, is constructed. These invariants may depend on unrestricted chiral supermultiplets, on vector supermultiplets…
Comparison theorems are established for the Dirac and Klein--Gordon equations. We suppose that V^{(1)}(r) and V^{(2)}(r) are two real attractive central potentials in d dimensions that support discrete Dirac eigenvalues E^{(1)}_{k_d\nu} and…
We report on some old and new results on the quantum aspects of four-dimensional maximal supergravity, and its hypothetical ultraviolet finiteness.
We consider four supergravities with 16+16, 32+32, 64+64, 128+128 degrees of freedom displaying some curious properties: (1) They exhibit minimal supersymmetry (N=1, 2, 2, 1) but maximal rank (r=7, 6, 4, 0) of the scalar coset in D=4, 5, 7,…
We find upper and lower bounds for the first eigenvalue and the volume entropy of a noncompact real analytic K\"ahler manifold, in terms of Calabi's diastasis function and diastatic entropy, which are sharp in the case of the complex…
The singular values $\sigma >1$ of an $n \times n$ involutory matrix $A$ appear in pairs $(\sigma, \frac{1}{\sigma}),$ while the singular values $\sigma = 1$ may appear in pairs $(1,1)$ or by themselves. The left and right singular vectors…
A single spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particle obeys the Dirac equation in $d\ge 1$ spatial dimension and is bound by an attractive central monotone potential which vanishes at infinity (in one dimension the potential is even). This work refines the…
We present a new six-parameter family of potentials whose solutions are expressed in terms of the hypergeometric functions 3F2, 2F2 and 1F2. Both the scattering data and the bound states of these potentials are explicitly computed and the…
