• Title: Comment on `Exact solution of the position-dependent effective mass and angular frequency Schr\"odinger equation: harmonic oscillator model with quantized confinement parameter'
• Authors: C. Quesne
• Abstract summary: In a recent paper, Jafarov, Nagiyev, Oste and Van der Jeugt, construct a confined model of the non-relativistic quantum harmonic oscillator. By using a point canonical transformation starting from the constant-mass Schr"odinger equation for the Rosen-Morse II potential, it is shown here that similar results can be easily obtained without quantizing the confinement parameter.

• Abstract: In a recent paper by Jafarov, Nagiyev, Oste and Van der Jeugt (2020 {\sl J.\ Phys.\ A} {\bf 53} 485301), a confined model of the non-relativistic quantum harmonic oscillator, where the effective mass and the angular frequency are dependent on the position, was constructed and it was shown that the confinement parameter gets quantized. By using a point canonical transformation starting from the constant-mass Schr\"odinger equation for the Rosen-Morse II potential, it is shown here that similar results can be easily obtained without quantizing the confinement parameter. In addition, an extension to a confined shifted harmonic oscillator directly follows from the same point canonical transformation.

We find that the squeezing present in the full Hamiltonian and in the initial state governs the deviation from the approximated evolution. We also show that the rotating wave approximation is recovered for resonant frequencies and vanishing coupling to frequency ratio.

  The free expansion of a Gaussian wavepacket is a problem commonly discussed in undergraduate quantum classes. We provide an alternative way to calculate the free expansion by recognizing that the Gaussian wavepacket can be thought of as the ground state of a harmonic oscillator. As quantum instruction evolves to include more quantum information science applications, reworking this well known problem using a squeezing formalism will help students develop intuition for how squeezed states are used in quantum sensing.
