We study the vortex lattices in a Bose-Einstein Condensate in a rotating
anisotropic harmonic trap. We first investigate the single particle
wavefunctions obtained by the exact solution of the problem and give simple
expressions for these wavefunctions in the small anisotropy limit. Depending on
the strength of the interactions, a few or a large number of vortices can be
formed. In the limit of many vortices, we calculate the density profile of the
cloud and show that the vortex lattice stays triangular. We also find that the
vortex lattice planes align themselves with the weak axis of the external
potential. For a small number of vortices, we numerically solve the
Gross-Pitaevskii equation and find vortex configurations that are very
different from the vortex configurations in an axisymmetric rotating trap.Comment: 15 pages,4 figure
