## Abstract

Quantum particle is considered confined in a toy-model potential possessing multiple minima. For the specific choice of the family of potentials (in the form of harmonic oscillator plus several logarithmic infinitely high but penetrable barriers), a facilitated tractability of the related bound-state problem is achieved by the use of the (slightly modified) large-N expansion technique. The phenomenological appeal of the possibility of simulation of a certain `relocalization' quantum catastrophe is emphasized.
