A systematic procedure using supersymmetric quantum mechanics is presented for calculating the energy eigenvalues of the Schrödinger equation. Starting from the Hamiltonian for a given potential-energy function, a sequence of supersymmetric partners is derived such that the ground-state energy of the kth one corresponds to the kth eigen energy of the original potential. Various theoretical procedures for obtaining ground-state energies, including a method involving a rational-function approximation for the solution of the Ricatti equation that is outlined in the present paper, can then be applied. Illustrative numerical results for two one-dimensional parity-invariant model potentials are given, and the results of the present procedure are compared with those obtainable via other methods. Generalizations of the method for arbitrary power-law potentials and for radial problems are discussed briefly.

We construct a new form of supersymmetric quantum mechanics named orthosupersymmetric quantum mechanics. We show that there are p orthosupercharges Qα (α= 1,2, …, p) which satisfy the algebra [Formula: see text] where H is the Hamiltonian. The spectra of this class of systems are shown to be (p+1)-fold degenerate, at least above the ground state. We also discuss a model of conformal orthosupersymmetry of degree p and show that in this case there are p orthosupercharges, and p conformal orthosupercharges which along with H, dilatation generator D and conformal generator K form a closed algebra. A comparative discussion on parasupersymmetric and orthosupersymmetric quantum mechanics is also given.

A method based on supersymmetric quantum mechanics is given for obtaining exact solutions of the potential V(r) = r2 + β/r4 + λ/r6, where β and λ are parameters, provided a certain constraint is satisfied between β and λ. Detailed results are given for the ground state as well as for several excited states. A method for determining the exact energies of two levels for the same values of β and λ is given and illustrated by examples.

Abstract We compute by supersymmetric localization the expectation values of half-BPS ’t Hooft line operators in $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 U(N ), SO(N ) and USp(N ) gauge theories on S1 × ℝ3 with an Ω-deformation. We evaluate the non-perturbative contributions due to monopole screening by calculating the supersymmetric indices of the corresponding supersymmetric quantum mechanics, which we obtain by realizing the gauge theories and the ’t Hooft operators using branes and orientifolds in type II string theories.
