Abstract We present a new independent scheme of SO(3) group transformations suitable for the N particle system, composed of N − 1 and 1 particle subsystems, where N − 1 particles have their own intrinsic clusterization. The simple expressions for corresponding four-particle harmonic-oscillator transformation brackets are presented, as well as their simplifications for the special values of mass ratio parameters d = 0, d → ∞ and d 1 = 0, d 1 → ∞.

Abstract The separability of the Schrödinger equation for harmonic oscillators in D dimensions and in different coordinate systems (Cartesian, circular, spherical) makes possible the construction of common generating functions for the complete harmonic oscillator wave functions in the corresponding dimensions and coordinates. Explicit forms of such generating functions and their series expansions are presented, and one of their applications is illustrated through the evaluation of transformation brackets. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In variational calculations with harmonic oscillator wavefunctions as trial bases, the transformation coefficients that relate harmonic oscillator wavefunctions in two different sets of internal coordinates are convenient to the evaluation of some matrix elements. Here, we present the explicit expression of these transformation coefficients for five-body systems. These transformation coefficients can be collected in a matrix according to the quantum number N of harmonic oscillator shell and can be programmed for arbitrary N.
