Abstract: We formulate and study the set of coupled nonlinear differential equations which define a series of shape invariant potentials which repeats after a cycle of iterations. These cyclic shape invariant potentials enlarge the limited reservoir of known analytically solvable quantum mechanical eigenvalue problems. At large values of , cyclic superpotentials are found to have a linear harmonic oscillator behavior with superposed oscillations consisting of several systematically varying frequencies. At the origin, cyclic superpotentials vanish when the period is odd, but diverge for even. The eigenvalue spectrum consists of infinite sets of equally spaced energy levels, shifted with respect to each other by arbitrary energies . As a special application, the energy spacings can be identified with the periodic points generatedby the logistic map . Increasing the value of and following the bifurcation route to chaos corresponds to studying cyclic shape invariant potentials as the period takes values 1,2,4,8,...
