A class of operators connecting general two-parametric Poschl-Teller Flamiltonians is found. These operators include the so-called "shift" (changing only the potential parameters) and "ladder" (changing also the energy eigenvalue) operators. The explicit action on eigenfunctions is computed within a simple and symmetric three-subindex notation. It is shown that the whole set of operators close an su(2, 2) approximate to so(4, 2) dynamical Lie algebra. A unitary irreducible representation of this so(4, 2) differential realization is characterized. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
