A new manner for deriving the exact potentials is presented. By making use of conformal mappings, the general expression of the effective potentials deduced under the su(1, 1) algebra can be brought back to the general Natanzon hypergeometric potentials.

Abstract. We construct, analytically and numerically, the Wigner distribution functions for the exact solutions of position-dependent effective mass Schrödinger equation for two cases belonging to the generalized Laguerre polynomials. Using a suitable quantum canonical transformation, expectation values of position and momentum operators can be obtained analytically in order to verify the universality of the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

The method for the recursive calculation of the effective potential is applied successfully in case of weak coupling limit (g tend to zero) to a multidimensional complex cubic potential. In strong-coupling limit (g tend to infinity), the result is resumed using the variational perturbation theory (VPT). It is found that the convergence of VPT-results approaches those expected.

A new position-dependent effective mass coherent states (PDEM CS) related to the shifted harmonic oscillator (SHO) are deduced. This is accomplished by applying a similarity transformation to the generally deformed oscillator algebra (GDOA) generators for PDEM systems and a new set of operators that close the Lie algebra are constructed, being the PDEM CS of the basis for its unitary irreducible representation. From the Lie algebra generators, we evaluate the uncertainty relationship for a position and momentum-like operators in the PDEM CS and show that it is minimized in the sense of Barut–Girardello CS. We prove that the deduced PDEM CS preserve the same analytical form than those of Glauber states. As an illustration of our procedure, we depicted the 2D-probability density in the PDEM CS for SHO with the explicit form of the mass distribution with no singularities.
