ITERATIVE BOGOLIUBOV TRANSFORMATIONS AND ANHARMONIC-OSCILLATORS - COMMENT

We discuss a recently proposed method [R. Jauregui and J. Recamier, Phys. Rev. A 46, 2240 (1992)] based on the application of iterative Bogoliubov transformations to anharmonic oscillators and show that, if the algorithm converges, one easily obtains the final result directly in one step. We prove that the Bogoliubov transformation can be written in terms of scaling and translation parameters and present exact results for the coefficients of the Bogoliubov transformation for some selected examples.
