Symbolic-Numeric Algorithms for Computer Analysis of Spheroidal Quantum Dot Models
A computation scheme for solving elliptic boundary value problems with
axially symmetric confining potentials using different sets of one-parameter
basis functions is presented. The efficiency of the proposed symbolic-numerical
algorithms implemented in Maple is shown by examples of spheroidal quantum dot
models, for which energy spectra and eigenfunctions versus the spheroid aspect
ratio were calculated within the conventional effective mass approximation.
Critical values of the aspect ratio, at which the discrete spectrum of models
with finite-wall potentials is transformed into a continuous one in strong
dimensional quantization regime, were revealed using the exact and adiabatic
classifications.Comment: 6 figures, Submitted to Proc. of The 12th International Workshop on

Three real-space discretization techniques in electronic structure calculations
A characteristic feature of the state-of-the-art of real-space methods in
electronic structure calculations is the diversity of the techniques used in
the discretization of the relevant partial differential equations. In this
context, the main approaches include finite-difference methods, various types
of finite-elements and wavelets. This paper reports on the results of several
code development projects that approach problems related to the electronic
structure using these three different discretization methods. We review the
ideas behind these methods, give examples of their applications, and discuss
their similarities and differences.Comment: 39 pages, 10 figures, accepted to a special issue of "physica status
