The upper(lower) diagonal element becomes a Schr¨odinger-like operator with the tensor component separated from the original Hamiltonian.Based on the operator, the tensor effect of the relativistic symmetries is explored with a focus on the single-particle energy contributed by the tensor coupling. The results show that the tensor coupling destroying(improving) the spin(pseudospin) symmetry is mainly attributed to the coupling of the spin-orbit and the tensor term, which plays an opposite role in the single-particle energy for the(pseudo-) spin-aligned and spin-unaligned states and has an important influence on the shell structure and its evolution.展开更多
