Frustating use of the Laplace transform for the quantum states of a particle in a box

Abstract In a recent paper diffused in the literature, the quantum problem of a particle in a infinite square well potential was claimed to be solved via Laplace transform. Surprisingly, the correct solutions were found for an eigenvalue problem with variable defined on a finite range. As a matter o...
