Popis: We find the energy levels of a free particle confined in a two dimensional infinite potential well having super-circular boundary (|x|n+|y|n=an where n is a rational number and a is a positive real number) by perturbing about the equivalent circle (n=2). The ground state energies are very accurate over a wide range of n and can be improved further by introducing a phenomenological constant determined from the knowledge of exact results available for diamond (n=1). For excited states, we find that the shape effect can cause parametric resonance which can lead to singlet-triplet crossing.
