A method to construct reflectionless potentials

From MaRDI portal





The author describes an explicit method for finding reflectionless and almost reflectionless potentials: taking \(r(k)=[1-g(k)]R(k)\), \(g(k)=e^{2k_0-2k}\) (\(k^2\equiv\) energy), which is reflectionless at \(k=k_0\), the kernel \[ G(r,s)=\frac1{2\pi}\int_{-\infty}^\infty r(k)e^{-ik(r-s)}\,dk + \text{ bound state terms} \] is defined and the solution of the Gelfand-Levitan equation \[ K(r,s)+G(r,s)+\int_{-\infty}^r K(r,t)G(t,s)\, dt=0 \] is found. In conclusion the example with \(R(k)=k/(k^2+b^2)\) is considered in details.
