Abstract
We consider eigenvalue problems in quantum mechanics in one dimension. Hamiltonians contain a class of double well potential terms, x\(^6\)+αx\(^2\), for example. The space coordinate is continued to a complex plane and the connection problem of fundamental system of solutions is considered. A hidden U\(_q\)(\(\widehat{gl}\)(2 ∣ 1)) structure arises in “fusion relations” of Stokes multipliers. With this observation, we derive coupled nonlinear integral equations which characterize the spectral properties of both ±α potentials simultaneously.
