Comment on: "Harmonic oscillator in an environment with a pointlike defect". Phys. Scr. 94 ( 2019) 125301

Abstract

We analyze recent results for a harmonic oscillator in an environment with a pointlike defect. We show that the allowed oscillator frequencies predicted by the authors stem from a misinterpretation of the exact solutions of a conditionally solvable eigenvalue equation. Also the exact eigenvalues derived by those authors are meaningless because they belong to different quantum-mechanical models.
