Abstract: We find a Hermite-type basis for which the eigenvalue problem associated to the operator $H_{A,B}:=B(-partia{l}_x^2)+A{x}^2$ acting on $$ becomes a three-terms recurrence. Here $A$ and $B$ are two constant positive definite matrices with no other restriction. Our main result provides an explicit characterization of the eigenvectors of $H_{A,B}$ that lie in the span of the first four elements of this basis when $ABot=BA$.
