Abstract
The confluent SUSY QM usually involves a second-order SUSY transformation where the two factorization energies converge to a single value. In order to achieve it, one generally needs to solve an indefinite integral, which limits the actual systems to which it can be applied. Nevertheless, not so long ago, an alternative method to achieve this transformation was developed through a Wronskian differential formula (Bermudez et al., 2012). In the present work, we consider the k-confluent SUSY transformation, where k factorization energies merge into a single value, and we develop a generalized Wronskian differential formula for this case. Furthermore, we explicitly work out general formulas for the third- and fourth-order cases and we present as examples the free particle and the single-gap Lamé potentials.
