Quasi-doubly periodic solutions to a generalized Lame equation
We consider the algebraic form of a generalized Lame equation with five free
parameters. By introducing a generalization of Jacobi's elliptic functions we
transform this equation to a 1-dim time-independent Schroedinger equation with
(quasi-doubly) periodic potential. We show that only for a finite set of
integral values for the five parameters quasi-doubly periodic eigenfunctions
expressible in terms of generalized Jacobi functions exist. For this purpose we
also establish a relation to the generalized Ince equation.Comment: 15 pages,1 table, accepted for publication in Journal of Physics
On separable Fokker-Planck equations with a constant diagonal diffusion matrix
We classify (1+3)-dimensional Fokker-Planck equations with a constant
diagonal diffusion matrix that are solvable by the method of separation of
variables. As a result, we get possible forms of the drift coefficients
providing separability of the
corresponding Fokker-Planck equations and carry out variable separation in the
latter. It is established, in particular, that the necessary condition for the
Fokker-Planck equation to be separable is that the drift coefficients must be linear. We also find the necessary condition for
R-separability of the Fokker-Planck equation. Furthermore, exact solutions of
the Fokker-Planck equation with separated variables are constructedComment: 20 pages, LaTe
Peculiarities of the hidden nonlinear supersymmetry of Poschl-Teller system in the light of Lame equation
A hidden nonlinear bosonized supersymmetry was revealed recently in
Poschl-Teller and finite-gap Lame systems. In spite of the intimate
relationship between the two quantum models, the hidden supersymmetry in them
displays essential differences. In particular, the kernel of the supercharges
of the Poschl-Teller system, unlike the case of Lame equation, includes
nonphysical states. By means of Lame equation, we clarify the nature of these
peculiar states, and show that they encode essential information not only on
the original hyperbolic Poschl-Teller system, but also on its singular
hyperbolic and trigonometric modifications, and reflect the intimate relation
of the model to a free particle system.Comment: 10 pages, typos corrected; to appear in J. Phys.
A Note on Tachyons in the System
The periodic bounce of Born-Infeld theory of -branes is derived, and the
BPS limit of infinite period is discussed as an example of tachyon
condensation. The explicit bounce solution to the Born--Infeld action is
interpreted as an unstable fundamental string stretched between the brane and
its antibrane.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures. v2: minor changes, acknowledgement added; v3:

The Elliptic Billiard: Subtleties of Separability
Some of the subtleties of the integrability of the elliptic quantum billiard
are discussed. A well known classical constant of the motion has in the quantum
case an ill-defined commutator with the Hamiltonian. It is shown how this
problem can be solved. A geometric picture is given revealing why levels of a
separable system cross. It is shown that the repulsions found by Ayant and
Arvieu are computational effects and that the method used by Traiber et al. is
related to the present picture which explains the crossings they find. An
asymptotic formula for the energy-levels is derived and it is found that the
statistical quantities of the spectrum P(s) and \Delta(L) have the form
expected for an integrable system.Comment: 10 pages, LaTeX, 3 Figures (postscript). Submitted to European
