The procedure proposed recently by J.Bougie, A.Gangopadhyaya and J.V.Mallow [1] to study the general form of shape invariant potentials in one-dimensional Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics (SUSY QM) is generalized to the case of Higher Order SUSY QM with supercharges of second order in momentum. A new shape invariant potential is constructed by this method. It is singular at the origin, it grows at infinity, and its spectrum depends on the choice of connection conditions in the singular point. The corresponding Schrödinger equation is solved explicitly: the wave functions are constructed analytically, and the energy spectrum is defined implicitly via the transcendental equation which involves Confluent Hypergeometric functions.Recently, the general investigation of additive form of shape invariance for superpotentials without explicit dependence on parameters was performed by J.Bougie et al [1], [11]. It was demonstrated that no additional shape invariant models in one-dimensional case can be constructed. This result was obtained in the framework of standard SUSY QM with supercharges of first order in derivatives. Meanwhile, it is known [18], [19], [20] that such standard SUSY QM does not exhaust all opportunities to fulfill the generalized SUSY algebra for SuperhamiltonianĤ and superchargesQ ± . Higher order supercharges are also possible, and for example supercharges of second order in momentum lead to some new results [20].
Abstract. The main ingredients of conventional Supersymmetrical Quantum Mechanics (SUSY QM) are presented. The generalization with supercharges of second order in derivatives -Second Order SUSY -is formulated, and the property of shape invariance is defined. The generalization to two-dimensional coordinate space, after using just these two elements of the modern SUSY QM approach, provides the opportunity to solve analytically some two-dimensional problems. Two different procedures of supersymmetrical separation of variables are formulated. They are illustrated by two-dimensional generalization of the Morse model.
Supersymmetrical (SUSY) intertwining relations are generalized to the case of quantum Hamiltonians in Minkowski space. For intertwining operators (supercharges) of second order in derivatives the intertwined Hamiltonians correspond to completely integrable systems with the symmetry operators of fourth order in momenta. In terms of components, the itertwining relations correspond to the system of nonlinear differential equations which are solvable with the simplest -constant -ansatzes for the "metric" matrix in second order part of the supercharges. The corresponding potentials are built explicitly both for diagonalizable and nondiagonalizable form of "metric" matrices, and their properties are discussed.
