Abstract
Abstract. Certain solutions to Harper’s equation are discrete analogues of (and approximations to) the Hermite–Gaussian functions. They are the energy eigenfunctions of a discrete algebraic analogue of the harmonic oscillator, and they lead to a definition of a discrete fractional Fourier transform (FT). The discrete fractional FT is essentially the time-evolution operator of the discrete harmonic oscillator. 1.
