✦ Synopsis

In this paper, by means of the homotopy analysis method (HAM), the solutions of some Schrodinger equations are exactly obtained in the form of convergent Taylor series. The HAM contains the auxiliary parameter h, that provides a convenient way of controlling the convergent region of series solutions. This analytical method is employed to solve linear and nonlinear examples to obtain the exact solutions. HAM is a powerful and easy-to-use analytic tool for nonlinear problems.
