The Relationship

The relationship between the Riccati and Schrödinger equations is discussed. It is shown that the transformation converting the Riccati equation into its normal form is expressed in terms of the roots of its algebraic part treated as a second-order polynomial. Together with the well-known Riccati transformation, a new transformation which also links the Riccati equation to the second-order linear differential equation is introduced. The latter is actually the Riccati transformation applied to an "inverse" Riccati equation. Two specific forms of the Riccati equation admitting the explicit particular rational solutions are obtained.

SynopsisIn an earlier paper [6] we showed that if q ϵ CN[0, ε) for some ε > 0, then the Titchmarsh–Weyl m(λ) function associated with the second order linear differential equationhas the asymptotic expansionas |A| →∞ in a sector of the form 0 < δ < arg λ < π – δ.We show that if the real valued function q admits the expansionin a neighbourhood of 0, then
