Semirelativistic Lagrange mesh calculations.

The Lagrange mesh method is a very powerful procedure to compute eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of nonrelativistic Hamiltonians. The trial eigenstates are developed in a basis of well-chosen functions and the computation of Hamiltonian matrix elements requires only the evaluation of the potential at grid points. It is shown that this method can be used to solve semirelativistic two-body eigenvalue equations. As in the nonrelativistic case, it is very accurate, fast, and very simple to implement.

Fourier grid hamiltonian method and lagrange-mesh calculations

Bound state eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a Schrodinger equation or a spinless Salpeter equation can be simply and accurately computed by the Fourier grid Hamiltonian (FGH) method. It requires only the evaluation of the potential at equally spaced grid points, and yields the eigenfunctions at the same grid points. The Lagrange-mesh (LM) method is another simple procedure to solve a Schrodinger equation on a mesh. It is shown that the FGH method is a special case of a LM calculation in which the kinetic energy operator is treated by a discrete Fourier transformation. This gives a firm basis for the FGH method and makes possible the evaluation of the eigenfunctions obtained with this method at any arbitrary values.
