Supersymmetric quantum mechanics and large-N expansions

Supersymmetric quantum mechanics is formulated for spherically symmetric potentials in N spatial dimensions. It is seen that the supersymmetric partner potential of a given potential can be effectively treated as being in N+2 dimensions. This fact is exploited in calculations using the shifted 1/N e...

Zusammenfassung:Supersymmetric quantum mechanics is formulated for spherically symmetric potentials in N spatial dimensions. It is seen that the supersymmetric partner potential of a given potential can be effectively treated as being in N+2 dimensions. This fact is exploited in calculations using the shifted 1/N expansion. Also, the violation of the no-degeneracy theorem in one dimension by the Coulomb potential is seen as a consequence of this result.
