Polyelliptic coordinates for solving the Schr\"odinger and Helmholtz equations
Abstract
Several local elliptic coordinates are used to build a new polyelliptic coordinate system which is orthogonal and admits the separation of variables. Such coordinate systems can give the exact solutions of some unsolved problems in quantum mechanics and diffraction theory.
