Howeve, Jeng et l pointed out tht it ws meningless to solve nonlocl eqution in piecewise fshion nd tht ll the solutions in publiction wee wong except the solution fo the delt function potentil, which ws obtined in the momentum spce. Jeng s citique esults in cisis of fctionl quntum mechnics, tht is, in mthemtics it is quite difficult to find solutions to the fctionl Schödinge eqution nd in physics thee is no eliztion fo the fctionl quntum mechnics. In ode to eliminte this cisis, this ppe epots some nlytic solutions to the fctionl Schödinge eqution without using piecewise method, nd intoduces the eltivistic Schödinge eqution s eliztion of the fctionl quntum mechnics. These two siste equtions should be studied t the sme time. Keywods Fctionl quntum mechnics, Fctionl Schödinge eqution, Reltivistic quntum mechnics, Reltivistic Schödinge eqution. Intoduction In, Lskin intoduced the fctionl quntum mechnics [-3]. As the fist exmple he solved the infinite sque well poblem in piecewise fshion [3]. Since then, the piecewise method hs been widely used in this field. In, howeve, Jeng, et l [4] citicized tht it ws meningless to solve nonlocl eqution in piecewise fshion nd they demonstted thtit ws impossible fo the gound stte function to stisfy the fctionl Schödinge eqution ne the boundy inside the well. In seies of ppes [5-8], Byin insisted tht he explicitly completed the clcultion in Jeng s ppe nd the wve functions did stisfy the fctionl Schödinge eqution inside the well. Hwkins nd Schwz [9] climed tht Byin s clcultion contined seious mistkes. Luchko [] povided some evidence tht the solution did not stisfy the eqution outside the well. On the othe hnd, Dong [] e-obtined the Lskin s solution by solving the fctionl Schödinge eqution with the pth integl method. It is not esyfo edes to judge thei mthemticl gument [, 3], but wegee with Jeng tht the piecewise method to solve the eqution is wong, since ecently we explicitly nd ingubly showed tht the Lskin s functions did not stisfy the fctionl Schödinge eqution with = nywhee on the x-xis [4]. Accoding to Jeng, et l [4], only the solution fo the delt function potentil [5-7] ws cceptble nd they * Coesponding utho: yuchunwei@gmil.com (Yuchun Wei) Published online t Copyight 5 Scientific & Acdemic Publishing.

Redes hve been looking fowd to some othe solutions to the fctionl Schödinge eqution since the simple solutions fo the infinite sque well potentil wee dispoved. Jeng et l [4] lso showed thei concen tht thee ws no eliztion of the fctionl quntum mechnics. Jeng s citique esulted in cisis within fctionl quntum mechnics. In mthemtics it is not esy to find solution to the fctionl Schödinge eqution, nd in physics it is not esy to find eliztions fo the fctionl quntum mechnics. In ode to eliminte this cisis, this ppe epots some solutions to the fctionl Schödinge eqution without using the piecewise method, nd intoduces the eltivistic Schödinge eqution [8-], s eliztion of the fctionl quntum mechnics.
