The authors use the extended phase space formulation of quantum statistical mechanics to define an extended Lagrangian and extended Hamiltonian for a damped harmonic oscillator. This phase space can be treated as a combination of the ordinary phase space and their conjugate moments. At that, a conservative system of combined actual and image oscillators evolving together is introduced. The mirror image oscillator plays the role of the interacting medium for the total conservative system. After the quantization procedure the evolution equation is obtained. This resultant equation is solved and the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for a damped oscillator and for its mirror image are obtained. Then the path integral technique is directly used to calculate the exact propagators. It is shown that the uncertainty principle both for position and moment is valid, it means that the obtained dissipative system really interacts with its surrounding medium. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0989.00035].
