Abstract: We consider the quantum Lobachevsky space $$, which is defined as subalgebra of the Hopf algebra $$. The Iwasawa decomposition of $$ introduced by Podles and Woronowicz allows to consider the quantum analog of the horospheric coordinates on $$. The action of the Casimir element, which belongs to the dual to ${calA}_q$ quantum group $$, on some subspace in $$ in these coordinates leads to a second order difference operator on the infinite one-dimensional lattice. In the continuos limit $qightarrow1$ it is transformed into the Schr"{o}dinger Hamiltonian, which describes zero modes into the Liouville field theory (the Liouville quantum mechanics). We calculate the spectrum (Brillouin zones) and the eigenfunctions of this operator. They are $q$-continuos Hermit polynomials, which are particular case of the Macdonald or Rogers-Askey-Ismail polynomials. The scattering in this problem corresponds to the scattering of first two level dressed excitations in the $Z_N$ Baxter model in the very peculiar limit when the anisotropy parameter $ga$ and $Nightarrowinfty$, or, equivalently, $(ga,N)ightarrow0$.
