Abstract

Complete spectrum of exact interdimensional degeneracies for a quantum NN-body system in DD-dimensions is presented by the method of generalized spherical harmonic polynomials. In an NN-body system all the states with angular momentum [μ+n][\mu+n] in (D2n)(D-2n) dimensions are degenerate where [μ][\mu] and DD are given and nn is an arbitrary integer if the representation [μ+n][\mu+n] exists for the SO(D2nD-2n) group and D2nND-2n\geq N. There is an exceptional interdimensional degeneracy for an NN-body system between the state with zero angular momentum in D=N1D=N-1 dimensions and the state with zero angular momentum in D=N+1D=N+1 dimensions.
