Popis: A set of exact solutions is found from the positive-definite HamiltonianH=1/2(pM−1p + [q,Aq]+ +qKq), whereM andK are symmetric, realn xn matrices and whereA is an arbitrary realn xn matrix. This Hamiltonian corresponds to an anisotropic harmonic oscillator in a uniform magnetic field. The method consists of solving a 2n-dimensional eigenvalue problem. The eigenvalues provide the characteristic transition frequencies and the eigenvectors are used to construct annihilation and creation operatorsaj and aj+. The procedure is similar to Bogolyubov transformation. These eigenvectors are also used to re-express theq andp as linear combinations of theseaj and aj+. The ground-state function is found; in the appropriate gauge it is a real Gaussian function of theq.
