Solution of the Dirac equation in the tridiagonal representation with pseudospin symmetry for an anharmonic oscillator and electric dipole ring-shaped potential

Abstract

An anharmonic oscillatory potential is proposed in which a noncentral electric dipole is included. The pseudospin symmetry for this potential is investigated by working in a complete square integrable basis that supports a tridiagonal matrix representation of the wave operator. The resulting three-term recursion relation for the expansion coefficients of the wavefunctions (both angular and radial) are presented. The angular/radial wavefunction is written in terms of Jacobi/Laguerre polynomials. The discrete spectrum of the bound states is obtained by the diagonalization of the radial recursion relation. The algebraic properties of the energy equation are also discussed, showing the exact pseudospin symmetry.
