Abstract: Combining several techniques, we propose an efficient and numerically reliable method to perform the quantum number projection and configuration mixing for most general mean-field states, i.e., the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) type product states without symmetry restrictions. As for example of calculations, we show the results of the simultaneous parity, number and angular-momentum projection from HFB type states generated from the cranked Woods-Saxon mean-field with a very large basis that is composed of Nmax=20 spherical harmonic oscillator shells.
