Factorization, ladder operators and isospectral structures
Abstract
Using the modified factorization method employed by Mielnik for the harmonic oscillator, we show that isospectral structures associated with a second order operator H, can always be constructed whenever H could be factored, or exist ladder operators for its eigenfunctions. Three examples are shown, and properties like completeness and integrability are discused for the general case.
