The former potentials are most easily built from the latter by using higher-order supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSYQM) or Darboux method. They may in general belong to three different types (or a mixture of them): types I and II, which are strictly isospectral, and type III, for which k extra bound states are created below the starting potential spectrum. A well-known SUSYQM method enables one to construct ladder operators for the extended potentials by combining the supercharges with the ladder operators of the starting potential. The resulting ladder operators close a polynomial Heisenberg algebra (PHA) with the corresponding Hamiltonian. In the special case of type III extended potentials, for this PHA the k extra bound states form k singlets isolated from the higher excited states. Some alternative constructions of ladder operators are reviewed. Among them, there is one that combines the state-adding and state-deleting approaches to type III extended potentials (or so-called Darboux-Crum and Krein-Adler transformations) and mixes the k extra bound states with the higher excited states. This novel approach can be used for building integrals of motion for two-dimensional superintegrable systems constructed from rationally-extended potentials.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-12-18T14:30:38.000Z", "comment": "14 pages, no figure, communication at the XXXth International Colloquium on Group Theoretical Methods in Physics, 14-18 July, 2014, Ghent, Belgium, to appear in Proceedings", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-04-15T13:01:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "ladder operators", "solvable potentials", "extended potentials", "higher excited states", "extra bound states form" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/1742-6596/597/1/012064", "journal": "Journal of Physics Conference Series", "year": 2015, "month": "Apr", "volume": 597, "number": 1, "pages": "012064" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015JPhCS.597a2064Q" } } }
