“…2 Further studies in noncommuting quantum spaces led to a Schrödinger equation with a position-dependent effective mass (PDM). 3 Along the last decades, the PDM systems have attracted attention because of their wide range of applicability in semiconductor theory, [4][5][6][7] nonlinear optics, 8 quantum liquids, 9,10 inversion potential for NH 3 in density functional theory, 11 particle physics, 12 many body theory, 13 molecular physics, 14 Wigner functions, 15 relativistic quantum mechanics, 16 superintegrable systems, 17 nuclear physics, 18 magnetic monopoles, 19,20 astrophysics, 21 nonlinear oscillations, [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] factorization methods and supersymmetry, [32][33][34][35][36] coherent states, [37][38][39] etc.…”
