Bound States for a Klein–Gordon Particle in Vector Plus Scalar Generalized Hulthén Potentials in D Dimensions

The Green's function associated with a Klein–Gordon particle moving in a D-dimensional space under the action of vector plus scalar q-deformed Hulthén potentials is constructed by path integration for q≥1 and 1/α ln q<r<∞. An appropriate approximation of the centrifugal potential term and the technique of space-time transformation are used to reduce the path integral for the generalized Hulthén potentials into a path integral for q-deformed Rosen–Morse potential. Explicit path integration leads to the radial Green's function for any l state in closed form. The energy spectrum and the correctly normalized wave functions, for a state of orbital quantum number l≥0, are obtained. Eventually, the vector q-deformed Hulthén potential and the Coulomb potentials in D dimensions are considered as special cases. (author)
