Quantum mechanical models and practical calculations often rely on some exactly solvable models like the Coulomb and the harmonic oscillator potentials. The $D$ dimensional generalized Coulomb potential contains these potentials as limiting cases, thus it establishes a continuous link between the Coulomb and harmonic oscillator potentials in various dimensions. We present results which are necessary for the utilization of this potential as a model and practical reference problem for quantum mechanical calculations. We define a Hilbert space basis, the generalized Coulomb-Sturmian basis, and calculate the Greens operator on this basis and also present an SU(1,1) algebra associated with it. We formulate the problem for the one-dimensional case too, and point out that the complications arising due to the singularity of the one-dimensional Coulomb problem can be avoided with the use of the generalized Coulomb potential.

A mapping is obtained relating radial screened Coulomb systems with low screening parameters to radial anharmonic oscillators in N-dimensional space. Using the formalism of supersymmetric quantum mechanics, it is shown that exact solutions of these p otentials exist when the parameters satisfy certain constraints.
The Levi-Civita transformation is applied in the two-dimensional (2D) Dirac and Klein-Gordon (KG) equations with equal external scalar and vector potentials. The Coulomb and harmonic oscillator problems are connected via the Levi-Civita transformatio n. These connections lead to an approach to solve the Coulomb problems using the results of the harmonic oscillator potential in the above-mentioned relativistic systems.
We explore the quantum Coulomb problem for two-body bound states, in $D=3$ and $D=3-2epsilon$ dimensions, in detail, and give an extensive list of expectation values that arise in the evaluation of QED corrections to bound state energies. We describe the techniques used to obtain these expectation values and give general formulas for the evaluation of integrals involving associated Laguerre polynomials. In addition, we give formulas for the evaluation of integrals involving subtracted associated Laguerre polynomials--those with low powers of the variable subtracted off--that arise when evaluating divergent expectation values. We present perturbative results (in the parameter $epsilon$) that show how bound state energies and wave functions in $D=3-2epsilon$ dimensions differ from their $D=3$ dimensional counterparts and use these formulas to find regularized expressions for divergent expectation values such as $big langle bar V^3 big rangle$ and $big langle (bar V)^2 big rangle$ where $bar V$ is the $D$-dimensional Coulomb potential. We evaluate a number of finite $D$-dimensional expectation values such as $big langle r^{-2+4epsilon} partial_r^2 big rangle$ and $big langle r^{4epsilon} p^4 big rangle$ that have $epsilon rightarrow 0$ limits that differ from their three-dimensional counterparts $big langle r^{-2} partial_r^2 big rangle$ and $big langle p^4 big rangle$. We explore the use of recursion relations, the Feynman-Hellmann theorem, and momentum space brackets combined with $D$-dimensional Fourier transformation for the evaluation of $D$-dimensional expectation values. The results of this paper are useful when using dimensional regularization in the calculation of properties of Coulomb bound systems.

We return to the description of the damped harmonic oscillator by means of a closed quantum theory with a general assessment of previous works, in particular the Bateman-Caldirola-Kanai model and a new model recently proposed by one of the authors. W e show the local equivalence between the two models and argue that latter has better high energy behavior and is naturally connected to existing open-quantum-systems approaches.
A comparative study is performed on two heterodyne systems of photon detectors expressed in terms of a signal annihilation operator and an image band creation operator called Shapiro-Wagner and Caves frame, respectively. This approach is based on the introduction of a convenient operator $hat psi$ which allows a unified formulation of both cases. For the Shapiro-Wagner scheme, where $[hat psi, hat psi^{dag}] =0$, quantum phase and amplitude are exactly defined in the context of relative number state (RNS) representation, while a procedure is devised to handle suitably and in a consistent way Caves framework, characterized by $[hat psi, hat psi^{dag}] eq 0$, within the approximate simultaneous measurements of noncommuting variables. In such a case RNS phase and amplitude make sense only approximately.
