Straight forward approaches to solve it in terms of position vectors of constituent particles and using standard mathematical techniques become too cumbersome and inconvenient when the system contains more than two particles. The introduction of Jacobi vectors, hyperspherical variables and hyperspherical harmonics as an expansion basis is an elegant way to tackle systematically the problem of an increasing number of interacting particles. Analytic expressions for hyperspherical harmonics, appropriate symmetrisation of the wave function under exchange of identical particles and calculation of matrix elements of the interaction have been presented. Applications of this technique to various problems of physics have been discussed. In spite of straight forward generalization of the mathematical tools for increasing number of particles, the method becomes computationally difficult for more than a few particles. Hence various approximation methods have also been discussed. Chapters on the potential harmonics and its application to Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) have been included to tackle dilute system of a large number of particles. A chapter on special numerical algorithms has also been provided. This monograph is a reference material for theoretical research in the few-body problems for research workers starting from advanced graduate level students to senior scientists.Theoretical and Mathematical Physics,1864-5879PhysicsNuclear physicsHeavy ionsMathematical physicsNumerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Nuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadronshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23010Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Mathematical Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M35000Physics.Nuclear physics.Heavy ions.Mathematical physics.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Nuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadrons.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Mathematical Physics.530.150285Das Tapan Kumarauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1373626MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910736976203321Hyperspherical Harmonics Expansion Techniques3424696UNINA
