A product formula for the eigenfunctions of a quartic oscillator

We consider the Schrödinger operator on the real line with an even quartic potential. Our main result is a product formula of the type. ψk(x)ψk(y)=∫Rψk(z)K(x,y,z)dz for its eigenfunctions ψk. The kernel function K is given explicitly in terms of the Airy function Ai(x), and it is positive for approp...

description We consider the Schrödinger operator on the real line with an even quartic potential. Our main result is a product formula of the type. ψk(x)ψk(y)=∫Rψk(z)K(x,y,z)dz for its eigenfunctions ψk. The kernel function K is given explicitly in terms of the Airy function Ai(x), and it is positive for appropriate parameter values. As an application, we obtain a particular asymptotic expansion of the eigenfunctions ψk.
