$n$-dimensional PDM-damped harmonic oscillators: Linearizability, and exact solvability

We consider position-dependent mass (PDM) Lagrangians/Hamiltonians in their standard textbook form, where the long-standing \emph{gain-loss balance} between the kinetic and potential energies is kept intact to allow conservation of total energy (i.e., $L=T-V$, $H=T+V$, and $dH/dt=dE/dt=0$). Under such standard settings, we discuss and report on $n$-dimensional PDM damped harmonic oscillators (DHO). We use some $n$-dimensional point canonical transformation to facilitate the linearizability of their $n$-PDM dynamical equations into some $n$-linear DHOs' dynamical equations for constant mass setting. Consequently, the well know exact solutions for the linear DHOs are mapped, with ease, onto the exact solutions for PDM DHOs. A set of one-dimensional and a set of $n$-dimensional PDM-DHO illustrative examples are reported along with their phase-space trajectories.
