Description
In this contribution basis sets derived from Daubechies wavelets scaling functions[1] are used to solve the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation on the interval $[-x_{\rm max}:x_{\rm max}]$. We present the results for
a) the harmonic oscillator and b) the Morse potential as function of the number $N$ of intervals. Double logarithmic fits of the energy error against $N$ are also shown. Fast convergence is found.
Finally further applications to the three-dimensional Schrödinger equation also with a view to density functional calculations are discussed.
