A comprehensive analysis of the structure of the nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) of neutrinoless double beta-minus (0]𝛽−𝛽−)
decays to the 0+ ground and first excited states is performed in terms of the contributing multipole states in the intermediate nuclei
of 0]𝛽−𝛽− transitions. We concentrate on the transitions mediated by the light (l-NMEs) Majorana neutrinos. As nuclear model we
use the proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phase approximation (pnQRPA) with a realistic two-nucleon interaction based on
the Bonn one-boson-exchange 𝐺 matrix. In the computations we include the appropriate short-range correlations, nucleon form
factors, and higher-order nucleonic weak currents and restore the isospin symmetry by the isoscalar-isovector decomposition of
the particle-particle proton-neutron interaction parameter 𝑔pp.
