Abstract
Using the Nikiforov–Uvarov (NU) method, the bound state energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the \({\cal P{\cal T}}$-/non-${\cal P}{\cal T}\)-symmetric and non-Hermitian modified Woods–Saxon (WS) model potential with the real and complex-valued energy levels are obtained in terms of the Jacobi polynomials. According to the \({\cal P}{\cal T}\)-symmetric quantum mechanics, we exactly solved the time-independent Schrödinger equation with same potential for the s-states and also for any l-state as well. It is shown that the results are in good agreement with the ones obtained before.
