Within the framework of Lanczos-inspired perturbation theory, wave function
s and energies in the short-range potential V(x) = a rho(2)(x) + lambda rho
(4)(x) with rho(x) = sech alpha x and a small coupling lambda are shown obt
ainable in closed form. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rig
