How can I make probabilty calculation with the eigenwavefunction gathered by eigs() function in MATLAB?

h = 0.0454973;
n = 10;
V = 545.0362942355468 - 1998.817146282548*x + 2980.608037604876*x^2 - 2314.110473743709*x^3 + 989.3591697175247*x^4 - 221.48586861701781*x^5 + 20.33254549765507*x^6;
%% Eigenvalue computation:
[xmin, xmax] = domain(V); % domain of problem
% Create a CHEBOP with Dirichlet BCs
L = chebop([xmin, xmax]);
L.lbc = 0; L.rbc = 0;
L.op = @(x,u) -h^2*diff(u,2) + V.*u; % Schroedinger operator
[U, D] = eigs(L, n, 'sr'); % compute evals/efuns
d = diag(D); % vector of evals
[d, ii] = sort(d); % sort them
U;
U = U(:,ii);
plot(U(:,8))
Here is the code that I am using for finding eigenfunction and eigenvalue. I can manage to graph the eigenfunction by using the last code line. However, I don't know how to convert the U into something that can be integrable to calculate probabilty of corresponding eigenfunction. Can someone help me?

Hi semih,
do you mean probabilty of the corresponding eigenvalue?
You have a set of orthonormal eigenfunctions U. For probabilities you would appear to need a wave function Y from somewhere else so that you can calculate overlaps with the eigenvectors. So if Y is a chebfun, then
abs(sum(conj(Y).*U(:,n)))^2
is the probability if being in quantum state n.
