In agreement with the Kohn theorem the relative motion (rel) of three electrons in a two-dimensional parabolic trap separates
from the centre-of-mass (CM) motion. By introducing new coordinates the Hamiltonian for relative motion in the approximation
of non-interacting electrons can be taken to the normal form. The eigenstates of the normalized Hamiltonian are products of
the Fock-Darwin states for normal modes. The energy levels for relative motion are obtained by diagonalizing the exact Hamiltonian
in the eigenbasis for the non-interacting case. In this basis the interaction matrix elements can be obtained in the analytical
form. Since the rank of the Hamiltonian matrix is significantly reduced, the calculations are faster and more accurate than
those for the full (CM + rel) motion. This advantage is especially important for the calculations of excited states and the
analysis of energy spectra.
