Abstract

We give in this article a new discussion of the Hofstadter problem. We use the algebraic methods of conventional quantum mechanics to get the Bethe-Ansatz equation, which was previously obtained via quantum group methods. The algebraic calculations give a new derivation of the Chambers formula.
