Abstract
We calculated the Shannon entropy of position and momentum for the stationary quantum states of the harmonic oscillator as a function of its energy and determined the corresponding entropic uncertainty relations for them. We found an approximate phenomenological function for the dependence of position and momentum entropies on the large quantum numbers and the corresponding asymptotic entropy - energy relation for the stationary harmonic oscillator. We also studied the time evolution of the position and momentum entropies of the non-stationary harmonic oscillator for the coherent states, squeezed vacuum and Schrodinger cat states.
