ABSTRACT It has recently been proved [3] that the solution spaces of certain classes of differential equations whose local solutions are parametrized by three or four arbitrary constants can be endowed with conformal Lorentzian metrics in a natural way. We shall prove that these conformal structures are preserved when the differential equations are transformed by a contact transformation.

We completely determine necessary and sufficient conditions for the normalizability of the wave functions giving the algebraic part of the spectrum of a quasi-exactly solvable Schrödinger operator on the line. Methods from classical invariant theory are employed to provide a complete list of canonical forms for normalizable quasi-exactly solvable Hamiltonians and explicit normalizability conditions in general coordinate systems.
