Making an ansatz to the wave function, the exact solutions of the D-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation with some molecular potentials, such as pseudoharmonic and modified Kratzer, are obtained. Restrictions on the parameters of the given potential, δ and ν are also given, where η depends on a linear combination of the angular momentum quantum number ℓ and the spatial dimensions D and δ is a parameter in the ansatz to the wave function. On inserting D = 3, we find that the bound state eigensolutions recover their standard analytical forms in literature.

A new non-central potential, consisting of a pseudoharmonic potential plus another recently proposed ring-shaped potential, is solved. It has the form . The energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the bound-states for the Schrödinger equation in D-dimensions for this potential are obtained analytically by using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method. The radial and angular parts of the wave functions are obtained in terms of orthogonal Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials. We also find that the energy of the particle and the wave functions reduce to the energy and the wave functions of the bound-states in three dimensions.

The Klein-Gordon equation in D-dimensions for a recently proposed ring-shaped Kratzer potential is solved analytically by means of the conventional Nikiforov-Uvarov method. The exact energy bound states and the corresponding wave functions of the Klein-Gordon are obtained in the presence of the non-central equal scalar and vector potentials. The results obtained in this work are more general and can be reduced to the standard forms in three dimensions given by other works.

We study the approximate analytical solutions of the Dirac equation for the generalized Woods-Saxon potential with the pseudo-centrifugal term. We apply the Nikiforov-Uvarov method (which solves a second-order linear differential equation by reducing it to a generalized hypergeometric form) to spin- and pseudospin-symmetry to obtain, in closed form, the approximately analytical bound state energy eigenvalues and the corresponding upper- and lower-spinor components of two Dirac particles. The special cases κ = ±1 (s = = 0, s-wave) and the non-relativistic limit can be reached easily and directly for the generalized and standard Woods-Saxon potentials. We compare the non-relativistic results with those obtained by others.

By using an ansatz for the eigenfunction, we have obtained the exact analytical solutions of the radial Schrödinger equation for the pseudoharmonic and the Kratzer potentials in two dimensions. The bound-state solutions are easily calculated from this eigenfunction ansatz. The corresponding normalized wavefunctions are also obtained.
