Between Schroedinger and Hermite: Supersymmetric pair of q-deformed non-local operators
Abstract
A simple version of the q-deformed calculus is used to generate a pair of q-nonlocal, second-order difference operators by means of deformed counterparts of Darboux intertwining operators for zero factorization energy. These deformed non-local operators may be considered as supersymmetric partners and their structure contains contributions originating in both the Hermite operator and the quantum harmonic oscillator operator. There are also extra x contributions. The undeformed limit, in which all q-nonlocalities wash out, corresponds to the usual supersymmetric pair of quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator Hamiltonians. The more general case of negative factorization energy is briefly discussed as well
