Double Shape Invariance of Two-Dimensional Singular Morse Model

A second shape invariance property of the two-dimensional generalized Morse potential is discovered. Though the potential is not amenable to conventional separation of variables, the above property allows to build purely algebraically part of the spectrum and corresponding wave functions, starting from {\it one} definite state, which can be obtained by the method of $SUSY$-separation of variables, proposed recently.Comment: 9 page

Non-linear Supersymmetry for non-Hermitian, non-diagonalizable Hamiltonians: II. Rigorous results

We continue our investigation of the nonlinear SUSY for complex potentials started in the Part I (math-ph/0610024) and prove the theorems characterizing its structure in the case of non-diagonalizable Hamiltonians. This part provides the mathematical basis of previous studies. The classes of potentials invariant under SUSY transformations for non-diagonalizable Hamiltonians are specified and the asymptotics of formal eigenfunctions and associated functions are derived. Several results on the normalizability of associated functions at infinities are rigorously proved. Finally the Index Theorem on relation between Jordan structures of intertwined Hamiltonians depending of the behavior of elements of canonical basis of supercharge kernel at infinity is proven.Comment: 31 pp., comments on PT symmetry and few relevant refs are adde

SUSY Intertwining Relations of Third Order in Derivatives

The general solution of the intertwining relations between a pair of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians by the supercharges of third order in derivatives is obtained. The solution is expressed in terms of one arbitrary function. Some properties of the spectrum of the Hamiltonian are derived, and wave functions for three energy levels are constructed. This construction can be interpreted as addition of three new levels to the spectrum of partner potential: a ground state and a pair of levels between successive excited states. Possible types of factorization of the third order supercharges are analysed, the connection with earlier known results is discussed.Comment: 17

Systems with Higher-Order Shape Invariance: Spectral and Algebraic Properties

We study a complex intertwining relation of second order for Schroedinger operators and construct third order symmetry operators for them. A modification of this approach leads to a higher order shape invariance. We analyze with particular attention irreducible second order Darboux transformations which together with the first order act as building blocks. For the third order shape-invariance irreducible Darboux transformations entail only one sequence of equidistant levels while for the reducible case the structure consists of up to three infinite sequences of equidistant levels and, in some cases, singlets or doublets of isolated levels.Comment: 18 pages, LaTeX, editorial page is remove

Two-Dimensional Supersymmetry: From SUSY Quantum Mechanics to Integrable Classical Models

Two known 2-dim SUSY quantum mechanical constructions - the direct generalization of SUSY with first-order supercharges and Higher order SUSY with second order supercharges - are combined for a class of 2-dim quantum models, which {\it are not amenable} to separation of variables. The appropriate classical limit of quantum systems allows us to construct SUSY-extensions of original classical scalar Hamiltonians. Special emphasis is placed on the symmetry properties of the models thus obtained - the explicit expressions of quantum symmetry operators and of classical integrals of motion are given for all (scalar and matrix) components of SUSY-extensions. Using Grassmanian variables, the symmetry operators and classical integrals of motion are written in a unique form for the whole Superhamiltonian. The links of the approach to the classical Hamilton-Jacobi method for related "flipped" potentials are established.Comment: 19 page

The Extended Chiral Quark Model confronts QCD

We discuss the truncation of low energy effective action of QCD below the chiral symmetry breaking (CSB) scale, including all operators of dimensionality less or equal to 6 which can be built with quark and chiral fields. We perform its bosonization in the scalar, pseudoscalar, vector and axial-vector channels in the large-N_c and leading-log approximation. Constraints on the coefficients of the effective lagrangian are derived from the requirement of Chiral Symmetry Restoration (CSR) at energies above the CSB scale in the scalar-pseudoscalar and vector-axial-vector channels, from matching to QCD at intermediate scales, and by fitting some hadronic observables. In this truncation two types of pseudoscalar states (massless pions and massive Pi'-mesons), as well as a scalar, vector and axial-vector one arise as a consequence of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking. Their masses and coupling constants as well as a number of chiral structural constants are derived. A reasonable fit of all parameters supports a relatively heavy scalar meson (quarkonium) with the mass \sim 1 GeV and a small value of axial pion-quark coupling constant g_A \simeq 0.55.Comment: Talk at QCD99, Montpellier, July 1999, 7 pages, Late

Polynomial SUSY in Quantum Mechanics and Second Derivative Darboux Transformation

We give the classification of second-order polynomial SUSY Quantum Mechanics in one and two dimensions. The particular attention is paid to the irreducible supercharges which cannot be built by repetition of ordinary Darboux transformations. In two dimensions it is found that the binomial superalgebra leads to the dynamic symmetry generated by a central charge operator.Comment: 10 pages, LaTeX, preprint SPbU-IP-94-0
