Although eigenspectra of shape invariant potentials with unbroken supersymm
etry are easily obtained, this procedure is not applicable when the paramet
ers in these potentials correspond to broken supersymmetry. We describe a n
ovel two-step shape invariance approach as well as a group theoretic potent
ial algebra approach for solving such broken supersymmetry problems. (C) 20
