Quantum propagator and characteristic equation in the presence of a chain of $δ$-potentials

A. Refaei, F. Kheirandish

Published 2014-07-23, updated 2014-12-11Version 3

The quantum propagator and characteristic equation in the presence of a chain of $\delta$-potentials are obtained in the rectangular, cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems. The simplicity and efficiency of the method is illustrated via examples. As an application, the characteristic equation of a quantum harmonic oscillator confined to an infinite box is obtained. The roots of the characteristic equation, determining the energy eigenvalues of the restricted oscillator, are calculated approximately and compared with the existing numerical data.
