Analytic Expression for Exact Ground State Energy Based on an Operator Method for a Class of Anharmonic Potentials

L. C. Kwek, Yong Liu, C. H. Oh, Xiang-Bin Wang

abstract: A general procedure based on shift operators is formulated to deal with anharmonic potentials. It is possible to extract the ground state energy analytically using our method provided certain consistency relations are satisfied. Analytic expressions for the exact ground state energy have also been derived specifically for a large class of the one-dimensional oscillator with cubic-quartic anharmonic terms. Our analytical results can be used to check the accuracy of existing numerical methods, for instance the method of state-dependent diagonalization. Our results also agree with the asymptotic behavior in the divergent pertubative expansion of quartic harmonic oscillator.
