Abstract
Shape invariance is an important ingredient of many exactly solvable quantum mechanics. Several examples of shape invariant ``discrete quantum mechanical systems" are introduced and discussed in some detail. They arise in the problem of describing the equilibrium positions of Ruijsenaars-Schneider type systems, which are "discrete" counterparts of Calogero and Sutherland systems, the celebrated exactly solvable multi-particle dynamics. Deformed Hermite and Laguerre polynomials are the typical examples of the eigenfunctions of the above shape invariant discrete quantum mechanical systems.

Exactly solvable quantum mechanics and infinite families of multi-indexed orthogonal polynomials

TL;DR: In this paper, infinite families of multi-indexed orthogonal polynomials are discovered as the solutions of exactly solvable one-dimensional quantum mechanical systems, where each polynomial has another integer n which counts the nodes and the totality of the integer indices correspond to the degrees of the virtual state wavefunctions which are deleted by the generalisation of Crum-Adler theorem.

Unified theory of annihilation-creation operators for solvable ('discrete') quantum mechanics

TL;DR: The annihilation-creation operators a (±) are defined as the positive/negative frequency parts of the exact Heisenberg operator solution for thesinusoidal coordinate as discussed by the authors, and the relative weights of various terms in them are solely determined by the energy spectrum.
