Abstract

We describe quantum behaviors of a simple harmonic oscillator, starting from the classical mechanics. By imposing two conditions on the phase points generated from a symplectic algorithm, we obtain discrete energy levels, satisfying Enτn=hE_n \tau_n = h where EnE_n is the total energy of the oscillator and τn\tau_n is the time step for the closed orbit of nn-polygon in phase space. We can thus successfully integrate classical and quantum mechanics into a single frame, if we assume that time is discrete.
