Undergrad Solving a quantum harmonic oscillator using quasi momentum

[Prathyush]

In the paper below I've seen a new method to solve the quantum harmonic oscillator
Introduction to the Spectrum of N=4 SYM and the Quantum Spectral Curve

It is done using the concept of quasi momentum defined as
$$p = - i \frac{d(\log \psi)}{dx}$$
See pg 7,8

Is this well know? is it discussed somewhere in detail?

The concept of quasi momentum has been studied in the literature for several decades, but it has been mainly used to study classical systems. It is a relatively new development to apply such a concept to quantum systems, particularly in the context of the Quantum Spectral Curve and the spectrum of N=4 SYM. To the best of our knowledge, there is no detailed discussion of this technique in the literature.
