Abstract

The idea presented here of a general quantization rule for bound states is mainly based on the Riccati equation which is a result of the transformed, time-independent, one-dimensional Schrödinger equation. The condition imposed on the logarithmic derivative of the ground state function W0 allows to present the Riccati equation as the unit circle equation with winding number equal to one which, by appropriately chosen transformations, can be converted into the unit circle equation with multiple winding number. As a consequence, a completely new quantization condition, which gives exact results for any quantum number, is obtained.
