Abstract

Bound states degenerated in energy (and differing in parity) may form in one-dimensional quantum mechanics if the potential is unbounded from below. We focus on symmetric potential and present quasi-exactly solvable (QES) model based on WKB method. The application of this method is limited on slow-changing potentials. We consider the overlap integral of WKB wave functions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] which correspond to energies [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], and by setting [Formula: see text], we determine the type of spectrum depending on parameter [Formula: see text] which arises from this method. For finite value [Formula: see text], we show that the entire spectrum will consist of degenerated bound states.
