Adelic Harmonic Oscillator

Using the Weyl quantization we formulate one-dimensional adelic quantum mechanics, which unifies and treats ordinary and $p$-adic quantum mechanics on an equal footing. As an illustration the corresponding harmonic oscillator is considered. It is a simple, exact and instructive adelic model. Eigenstates are Schwartz-Bruhat functions. The Mellin transform of a simplest vacuum state leads to the well known functional relation for the Riemann zeta function. Some expectation values are calculated. The existence of adelic matter at very high energies is suggested.
