Invariant eigen-operator method of deriving energy-level gap for noncommutative quantum mechanics

We propose a new method to derive energy-level gap for Hamiltonians in the context of noncommutative quantum mechanics (NCQM). This method relies on finding invariant eigen-operators whose commutators with Hamiltonian are still the operators themselves but with some eigenvalue-like coefficients, which correspond to the energy-level gaps of the systems. Based on this method, only after some simple algebra, we derive the energy-level gaps for several important systems in NCQM, and most of these results have not been reported in literature so far.
