Abstract
The nonlinear supersymmetric (SUSY) approach to spectral problems in quantum mechanics (QM) is reviewed. Its building from the chains (ladders) of linear SUSY systems is outlined and different one-dimensional and two-dimensional realizations are described. It is elaborated how the nonlinear SUSY approach provides two new methods of SUSY separation of variables for various two-dimensional models. In the framework of these methods, a partial and/or complete solution of some two-dimensional models becomes possible. The full classification of ladder-reducible and irreducible chains of SUSY algebras in one-dimensional QM is given. The emergence of hidden symmetries and spectrum generating algebras is elucidated in the context of the nonlinear SUSY in one-dimensional stationary and non-stationary, as well as in two-dimensional QM.

Factorization method and new potentials from the inverted oscillator
