 Solution

Put $p=\sqrt{2mE}/\hslash$ and $\gamma =mk/{\hslash }^2$. Integrating the Schrodinger equation across the delta potential gives continuity of $\psi$ andFor incidence from the left, write $\psi =e^{ipx}+r{e}^{-ipx}$ on $x<0$ and $\psi =t{e}^{ipx}$ on $x>0$. Matching gives $t=1+r$ and $ip(t-1+r)=2\gamma t$, henceThe incident and transmitted probability currents have the same velocity factor, so the reflection coefficient and transmission coefficient areFor $k<0$, an even bound state has $\psi =A{e}^{-\kappa |x|}$, $\kappa =\sqrt{-2mE}/\hslash$. The derivative jump now gives $-2\kappa A=2\gamma A$, so $\kappa =-\gamma >0$ andThere is exactly one positive value of $\kappa$, hence exactly one even bound state. Its normalized amplitude is $A=\sqrt{\kappa }$. An odd decaying solution would have to vanish at zero and is therefore trivial.

In the shrinking finite square well, its integrated potential is $k=-2Ul$, not $-Ul$: the full width is $2l$. With $Ul$ fixed and $l\to 0$, $0\le (\alpha l{)}^2\le 2mU{l}^2/{\hslash }^2\to 0$. The matching condition then bounds $\beta$ by $(2mUl/{\hslash }^2)(1+o(1))$, so $E$ remains bounded. Consequently $El\to 0$, and the previous matching condition givesUsing $E=-{\hslash }^2{\beta }^2/(2m)$ recovers the same bound-state energy. All other even levels disappear as the width shrinks.
