In this paper we formulate the shifted 1/N expansion method for constrained quantum mechanical systems with spherically symmetric potentials. As an example, we apply our technique to the confined Hulthén potential V(r) = –Zδ[e -δr/(1 –e-δr)] for different values of the confinement parameter b and the screening parameter δ. It is found that the agreement between our results and the exact numerical values is reasonably good.PACS No.: 03.65Ge

We formulate [Formula: see text]-fold supersymmetry in quantum mechanical systems with reflection operators. As in the cases of other systems, they possess the two significant characters of [Formula: see text]-fold supersymmetry, namely, almost isospectrality and weak quasi-solvability. We construct explicitly the most general one- and two-fold supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems with reflections. In the case of [Formula: see text], we find that there are seven inequivalent such systems, three of which are characterized by three arbitrary functions having definite parity while the other four characterized by two arbitrary functions. In addition, four of the seven inequivalent systems do not reduce to ordinary quantum systems without reflections. Furthermore, in certain particular cases, they are essentially equivalent to the most general two-by-two Hermitian matrix two-fold supersymmetric quantum systems obtained previously by us.

I will describe the behaviour of two different quantum-mechanical systems as a function of increasing temperature. While these systems are somewhat different, the questions addressed are very similar, namely, how does one describe transitions in phase of a finite many-body system; how does one recognise these transitions in practical calculations; and how may one obtain the order of the transition.
