Abstract

A sufficient condition to relate the general solutions of two different bidimensional problems, both in classical and quantum mechanics, is found. The point transformation, as well as the explicit construction of the related potentials, is presented. The procedure is then used in geometrical optics, the vibrating membrane, and other physical systems in two dimensions. Several examples and applications are worked out.
