Abstract
The resolution of the Schr\"odinger equation for the translation-invariant -body harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian in dimensions with one-body and two-body interactions is performed by diagonalizing a matrix of order . It has been previously established that the diagonalization can be analytically performed in specific situations, such as for or for identical particles. We show that the matrix is diagonal, and thus the problem can be analytically solved, for any number of arbitrary masses provided some specific relations exist between the coupling constants and the masses. We present analytical expressions for the energies under those constraints.
