✦ Synopsis
Because of the high degeneracy of hyperspherical harmonics, a method is needed for selecting the most important ones for inclusion in hyperangular basis sets. Such a method was developed by M. Fabre de la Ripelle, who showed that the most important harmonics are -projections of the product of the potential and a zeroth-order wave function; and he gave these the name, ''potential harmonics.'' In the present study we develop Fourier-transform-based methods for generating potential harmonics and for evaluating matrix elements between them. These methods are illustrated by a small calculation on three-body Coulomb systems with a variety of mass ratios.

## Abstract For calculating molecular integrals of systematic potentials, a three‐dimensional (3D) Fourier transform general formula can be derived, by the use of the Abel summation method. The present general formula contains all 3D Fourier transform formulas which are well known as Bethe–Salpeter
Let O denote a nonempty finite set. Let SðOÞ denote the symmetric group on O and let PðOÞ denote the power set of O: Let r : SðOÞ ! UðL 2 ðPðOÞÞÞ be the left unitary representation of SðOÞ associated with its natural action on PðOÞ: We consider the algebra consisting of those endomorphisms of L 2 ðP
