The spectrum of the q-Hamiltonian is obtained by using the Rayleigh-Ritz variational method in which the discrete q-Hermite I polynomials are taken as the basis. As applications, q-harmonic, purely q-quartic, and q-quartic oscillators are examined in the class of symmetric polynomial potentials. Moreover, the q-version of Gaussian potential for an example of a non-polynomial symmetric potential and a specific example of q-version of asymmetric double well potential are presented. Numerous results are given for these potentials for several values of q. The limit relation as q ? 1(-) is discussed. The obtained results of ground-and excited-state energies of the purely q-quartic oscillator and the accuracy of the ground-state energy levels are compared with the existing results. Also, the results are compared with the classical case appearing in the literature in the limiting case q?1(-).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessdiscrete Schr & oumldinger equationdiscrete q-Hermite I polynomialspurely q-quartic oscillatorRayleigh-Ritz variational methodSpectrum of a Q-Deformed Schrödinger Equation by Means of the Variational MethodArticleQ146181869318705WOS:001040693600001
