Separable Structure of Many-Body Ground-State Wave Function

We have investigated a general structure of the ground-state wave function for the Schr\"odinger equation for $N$ identical interacting particles (bosons or fermions) confined in a harmonic anisotropic trap in the limit of large $N$. It is shown that the ground-state wave function can be written in a separable form. As an example of its applications, this form is used to obtain the ground-state wave function describing collective dynamics for $N$ trapped bosons interacting via contact forces.
