We systematically formulate a hierarchy of isospectral Hamiltonians in one-dimensional supersymmetric quantum mechanics on an interval and on a circle, in which two successive Hamiltonians form N=2 supersymmetry. We find that boundary…
SUSY partnership between singular potentials often breaks down. Via regularization it can be restored on certain ad hoc subspaces of Hilbert space [Das and Pernice, Nucl. Phys. B 561 (1999) 357]. Within the naturally complexified (so called…

Supersymmetry (SUSY) in non-relativistic quantum mechanics (QM) is applied to a 2-dimensional physical system: a neutron in an external magnetic field. The superpotential and the two-component wave functions of the ground state are found…
