'Improving the convergence of an iterative algorithm proposed by Waxman', Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, vol. 40, no. 45, pp. 14075-14078 [http://www.iop.org/EJ/journal/JPhysA]1751-812110.1088/0305-4470/39/45/016http://hdl.handle.net/2263/2626In an iterative algorithm recently proposed by Waxman for solving eigenvalue problems, we point out that the convergence rate may be improved. For many non-singular symmetric potentials which vanish asymptotically, a simple analytical relationship between the coupling constant of the potential and the ground state eigenvalue is obtained which can be used to make the algorithm more efficient.61484 bytesapplication/pdfenAmerican Institute of PhysicsWaxman algorithmAlgorithmsEigenvaluesArticle
