Some features of the statistical complexity, Fisher–Shannon information and Bohr-like orbits in the quantum isotropic harmonic oscillator
Jaime Sañudo A, Ricardo López‐Ruiz
The Fisher-Shannon information and a statistical measure of complexity are calculated in the position and momentum spaces for the wave functions of the quantum isotropic harmonic oscillator. We show that these magnitudes are independent of the strength of the harmonic potential. Moreover, for each level of energy, it is found that these two indicators take their minimum values on the orbitals that correspond to the classical (circular) orbits in the Bohr-like quantum image, just those with the highest orbital angular momentum.
