Algebraic approach to the Dunkl-Coulomb problem and Dunkl oscillator in arbitrary dimensions (Q2222851): Difference between revisions

The paper under review contains several interesting results on the Dunkl-Coulomb and the Dunkl oscillator models in \(N\) dimensions, asociated to the reflection group \(\mathbb{Z}_2^N\). Thus, one proves that both these models are maximally superintegrable and exactly solvable, and their energy spectrum as well as the wave functions are determined using suitable representations of the Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{so}(1, 2)\). The symmetry operators generalizing the Runge-Lenz vector operator and the Dunkl angular momentum operators and reflection operators generate the symmetry algebra of the \(N\)-dimensional Dunkl-Coulomb Hamiltonian. That algebra is a deformation of \(\mathfrak{so}(N + 1)\) by reflections for bound states and is also a deformation of \(\mathfrak{so}(N, 1)\) by reflections for positive energy states. On the other hand, the symmetry algebra of the Dunkl oscillator is a deformation of the Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{su}(N)\) by reflections.
