On the products of bipolar harmonics

The products of the two and three bipolar harmonics ${\cal Y}^{\ell_1 \ell_2}_{LM}({\bf r}_{31}, {\bf r}_{32})$ are represented as the finite sums of powers of the three relative coordinates $r_{32}, r_{31}$ and $r_{21}$. The complete (angular+radial) integrals of the products of the two and three bipolar harmonics in the basis of exponential radial functions are expressed as finite sums of the auxiliary three-particle integrals $Γ_{n,k,l}(α, β, γ)$. The formulas derived in this study can be used to accelerate highly accurate computations of the rotationally excited (bound) states in arbitrary three-body systems. In particular, we have constructed compact (400-term) variational wave functions for the triplet and singlet $2P(L = 1)-$states in light two-electron atoms and ions. Highly accurate calculations (20 - 21 stable decimal digits in the total energy) of the triplet and singlet $2P(L = 1)-$states in the two-electron Li$^{+}$, Be$^{2+}$, B$^{3+}$ and C$^{4+}$ ions are performed for the first time
