New Quasi Exactly Solvable Difference Equation

Abstract

Exact solvability of two typical examples of the discrete quantum mechanics, i.e. the dynamics of the Meixner-Pollaczek and the continuous Hahn polynomials with full parameters, is newly demonstrated both at the Schroedinger and Heisenberg picture levels. A new quasi exactly solvable difference equation is constructed by crossing these two dynamics, that is, the quadratic potential function of the continuous Hahn polynomial is multiplied by the constant phase factor of the Meixner-Pollaczek type. Its ordinary quantum mechanical counterpart, if exists, does not seem to be known.
