A product formula for the eigenfunctions of a quartic oscillator

Abstract: We consider the Schr"odinger operator on the real line with an even quartic potential. Our main result is a product formula of the type

p s i_{k} (x) p s i_{k} (y) = i n t_{m a t h b b R} p s i_{k} (z) m a t h c a l K (x, y, z) d z

for its eigenfunctions

p s i_{k}

. The kernel function

m a t h c a l K

is given explicitly in terms of the Airy function

m a t h r m A i (x)

, and is positive for appropriate parameter values. As an application, we obtain a particular asymptotic expansion of the eigenfunctions

p s i_{k}

.
