ON THE COMMON LIMIT OF THE PT-SYMMETRIC ROSEN–MORSE II AND FINITE SQUARE WELL POTENTIALS

Two <em>PT</em>-symmetric potentials are compared, which possess asymptotically finite imaginary components: the <em>PT</em>-symmetric Rosen-Morse II and the finite <em>PT</em>-symmetric square well potentials. Despite their different mathematical structure, their...
