- Abstract: It is shown that for the one-dimensional quantum anharmonic oscillator with
potential $V(x)= x^2+g^2 x^4$ the Perturbation Theory (PT) in powers of $g^2$
(weak coupling regime) and the semiclassical expansion in powers of $\hbar$ for
energies coincide. It is related to the fact that the dynamics in $x$-space and
in $(gx)$-space corresponds to the same energy spectrum with effective coupling
constant $\hbar g^2$. Two equations, which govern the dynamics in those two
spaces, the Riccati-Bloch (RB) and the Generalized Bloch (GB) equations,
respectively, are derived. The PT in $g^2$ for the logarithmic derivative of
wave function leads to PT (with polynomial in $x$ coefficients) for the RB
equation and to the true semiclassical expansion in powers of $\hbar$ for the
GB equation, which corresponds to a loop expansion for the density matrix in
the path integral formalism. A 2-parametric interpolation of these two
expansions leads to a uniform approximation of the wavefunction in $x$-space
with unprecedented accuracy $\sim 10^{-6}$ locally and unprecedented accuracy
$\sim 10^{-9}-10^{-10}$ in energy for any $g^2 \geq 0$. A generalization to the
radial quartic oscillator is briefly discussed.
