Soluble model of many interacting quantum particles in a trap

Exact solutions to many-body interacting systems of both bosonic and Fermionic particles confined to harmonic potential in an arbitrary number of dimensions are given, Energy levels and their degeneracies fur trapped identical particles interacting via harmonic forces are calculated. This specific form of the interaction allows for analytical solutions. The mutual interaction, attractive or repulsive. modifies significantly the properties of the considered system. For a large number of particles the interaction essentially results in a frequency shift. Statistical properties (e.g., microcanonical and grand canonical partition functions) as well as some illustrative, physically relevant examples are discussed. Our results give an unusual opportunity for further studies of interacting systems in the framework of the exactly soluble model.
