Abstract

It is shown that the state vector of a harmonic oscillator in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space changes sign only when the Hilbert space is of even dimension. The cyclic geometric phase for this finite-dimensional Hilbert-space harmonic oscillator is calculated. The effect of the finiteness of the Hilbert space on the dynamical and geometric phase change of a harmonic oscillator during a complete cycle is studied. In the limit of an infinite-dimensional case, the expressions reduce to the well known results.
