Abstract
Using the generating function technique we calculate the matrix elements of the rotation operator between harmonic oscillator wave functions of different oscillator lengths. Closed analytical expressions for the matrix elements for harmonic oscillator wave functions in Cartesian and cylindrical coordinates are provided. They are given in terms of finite sums and are adequate for computer programs.
