Exact, zero-energy, square-integrable solutions of a model related to the Maxwell's fish-eye problem

Journal Article · · Annals of Physics (New York)

A model, which admits normalizable wave functions of the Schroedinger equation at the energy of E = 0, is exactly solved and the solutions are compared to the corresponding classical trajectories. The wave functions are proved to be square-integrable for discrete (quantized) values of the coupling constant of the used potential. We also show that our model is a specific version of the well-known Maxwell's fish-eye. This is performed with the help of a suitably chosen conformal mapping.
