Recursion formulae for the matrix elements of the Lorentzian term 1/(C2 + q2) as well as 1/(C2 + q2)2, on the basis of harmonic oscillator eigenfunctions, are obtained. A practical application where these formulae would be useful is discussed

We study the structure of a quantum algebra in which a parity-violating term modifies the standard commutation relation between the creation and annihilation operators of the simple harmonic oscillator. We discuss several useful applications of the modified algebra. We show that the Bernoulli and Euler numbers arise naturally in a special case. We also show a connection with Gaussian and non-Gaussian squeezed states of the simple harmonic oscillator. Such states have been considered in quantum optics. The combinatorial theory of Bernoulli and Euler numbers is developed and used to calculate matrix elements for squeezed states.

Abstract A formalism is presented to obtain approximate analytic expressions for the eigenstates and eigenvalues of a quantum double oscillator (QDO). The matrix elements of a large class of operators with respect to states of different double oscillators result as finite sums of explicit functions of the respective parameters. Matrix elements between states of a harmonic oscillator and a double oscillator are also determined. The analytic expressions were used to calculate Franck-Condon factors for electronic transitions including double oscillator anharmonicities.

Abstract The Gauss-perturbed harmonic oscillator, a customary double minimum potential of molecular spectroscopy, is made more flexible by addition of a term α4 · exp(-γ4X4). The matrix elements of the additional term are calculated in the harmonic oscillator basis in terms of parabolic cylinder functions. A sum rule for matrix elements serves as an independent numerical control. The eigenvalues can be given by straightforward diagonalization of the Hamilton-matrix. In addition, upper and lower bounds are given for the partition function.
