We apply the Gröbner basis to the ansatz method in quantum mechanics to obtain the energy eigenvalues and the wave functions in a very simple manner. There are important physical potentials such as the Cornell interaction which play significant roles in particle physics and can be treated via this technique. As a typical example, the algorithm is applied to the semi-relativistic spinless Salpeter equation under the Cornell interaction. Many other applications of the idea in a wide range of physical fields are listed as well.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
