Putting to define the scaling exponent , then corresponds to ODLRO and to the single-particle occupation of the density matrix orbitals. When , can be used to quantify deviations from ODLRO. In this paper we study the exponent in a variety of one-dimensional bosonic and anyonic quantum systems at T = 0. For the 1D Lieb-Liniger Bose gas we find that for small interactions is close to 1, implying a mesoscopic condensation, i.e. , a value of the zero temperature "condensate" fraction appreciable at finite values of N (as the ones in experiments with 1D ultracold atoms). 1D anyons provide the possibility to fully interpolate between and 0. The behaviour of for these systems is found to be non-monotonic both with respect to the coupling constant and the statistical parameter.

A quantum system exhibits off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) when the largest eigenvalue λ 0 of the one-body-density matrix scales as λ 0 ∼ N , where N is the total number of particles.Putting λ 0 ∼ N C to define the scaling exponent C, then C = 1 corresponds to ODLRO and C = 0 to the single-particle occupation of the density matrix orbitals.When 0 < C < 1, C can be used to quantify deviations from ODLRO.In this paper we study the exponent C in a variety of one-dimensional bosonic and anyonic quantum systems at T = 0.For the 1D Lieb-Liniger Bose gas we find that for small interactions C is close to 1, implying a mesoscopic condensation, i.e. a value of the zero temperature "condensate" fraction λ 0 /N appreciable at finite values of N (as the ones in experiments with 1D ultracold atoms).1D anyons provide the possibility to fully interpolate between C = 1 and 0. The behaviour of C for these systems is found to be non-monotonic both with respect to the coupling constant and the statistical parameter.[2] A. Colcelli, J. Viti, G. Mussardo, and A.

Finite temperature off-diagonal long-range order for interacting bosons

A. Colcelli, Nicolò Defenu, Giuseppe Mussardo +1 more

Characterizing the scaling with the total particle number ($N$) of the largest eigenvalue of the one-body density matrix (${\ensuremath{\lambda}}_{0}$) provides information on the occurrence of the off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) according to the Penrose-Onsager criterion. Setting ${\ensuremath{\lambda}}_{0}\ensuremath{\sim}{N}^{{\mathcal{C}}_{0}}$, then ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}=1$ corresponds in ODLRO. The intermediate case, $0<{\mathcal{C}}_{0}<1$, corresponds in translational invariant systems to the power-law decaying of (nonconnected) correlation functions and it can be seen as identifying quasi-long-range order. The goal of the present paper is to characterize the ODLRO properties encoded in ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}$ (and in the corresponding quantities ${\mathcal{C}}_{k\ensuremath{\ne}0}$ for excited natural orbitals) exhibited by homogeneous interacting bosonic systems at finite temperature for different dimensions in presence of short-range repulsive potentials. We show that ${\mathcal{C}}_{k\ensuremath{\ne}0}=0$ in the thermodynamic limit. In one dimension it is ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}=0$ for nonvanishing temperature, while in three dimensions it is ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}=1$ (${\mathcal{C}}_{0}=0$) for temperatures smaller (larger) than the Bose-Einstein critical temperature. We then focus our attention to $D=2$, studying the $XY$ and the Villain models, and the weakly interacting Bose gas. The universal value of ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}$ near the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless temperature ${T}_{\text{BKT}}$ is $7/8$. The dependence of ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}$ on temperatures between $T=0$ (at which ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}=1$) and ${T}_{\text{BKT}}$ is studied in the different models. An estimate for the (nonperturbative) parameter $\ensuremath{\xi}$ entering the equation of state of the two-dimensional Bose gases is obtained using low-temperature expansions and compared with the Monte Carlo result. We finally discuss a ``double jump'' behavior for ${\mathcal{C}}_{0}$, and correspondingly of the anomalous dimension $\ensuremath{\eta}$, right below ${T}_{\text{BKT}}$ in the limit of vanishing interactions.

Off-Diagonal Long-Range Order and Generalized Bose Condensation

Marvin D. Girardeau

It is shown for boson systems with periodic boundary conditions that the existence of generalized Bose condensation, of which the simple type typified by the ideal Bose gas is a special case, is equivalent to the existence of off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) in the single-particle density matrix ρ1 provided that the two noncomuting limits involved in the criterion for ODLRO are taken in the proper order: first size of system → ∞, then interparticle separation → ∞. It is shown by means of an example that certain assumptions concerning the behavior of the single-particle momentum distribution function involved in proving this equivalence are actually satisfied in thermal equilibrium for some dynamical models. The analysis is generalized to box-enclosure boundary conditions by an extension of an argument due to Schafroth, according to which box-enclosure conditions are equivalent to homogeneous Neumann conditions except for a thermodynamically negligible surface effect, provided that one second-quantizes with respect to Hartree-Fock orbitals rather than free-particle orbitals. A general criterion for generalized Bose condensation in terms of eigenvalues of ρ1 is proposed. On the basis of the behavior of soluble models it is conjectured that for a boson system in thermal equilibrium subject to arbitrary boundary conditions, the existence of such Bose condensation is equivalent to the existence of ODLRO in ρ1. The two-particle density matrix ρ2 is discussed briefly. By means of a simplified model it is shown that for a Bose system generalized condensation implies large eigenvalues of ρ2 and ODLRO of ρ2, just as for ρ1. It is pointed out that the question of the existence or nonexistence of generalized Bose condensation of fermion pairs ought to be investigated.

Finite-size scaling behavior of Bose-Einstein condensation in the 1D Bose gas

Jun Sato, Eriko Kaminishi, Tetsuo Deguchi

Through exact numerical solutions we show Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) for the one-dimensional (1D) bosons with repulsive short-range interactions at zero temperature by taking a particular large size limit. Following the Penrose-Onsager criterion of BEC, we define condensate fraction by the fraction of the largest eigenvalue of the one-particle reduced density matrix. % We show the finite-size scaling behavior such that condensate fraction is given by a scaling function of one-variable: interaction parameter multiplied by a power of particle number. Condensate fraction is nonzero and constant for any large value of particle number or system size, if the interaction parameter is proportional to the negative power of particle number. %Here the interaction parameter is defined by the coupling constant of the delta-function potentials devided by the density. %With the scaling behavior we derive various themodynamic limits where condensate fraction is constant for any large system size; for instance, it is the case even in the system of a finite particle number.

Proof of off-diagonal long-range order in a mean-field trapped Bose gas via the Feynman–Kac formula

Tianyi Bai, Wolfgang König, Quirin Vogel

We consider the non-interacting Bose gas of N bosons in dimension d≥3 in a trap in a mean-field setting with a vanishing factor aN in front of the kinetic energy. The choice aN=N−2∕d is the semi-classical setting and was analysed in great detail in a special, interacting case in [DS21]. Using a version of the well-known Feynman–Kac representation and a further representation in terms of a Poisson point process, we derive precise asymptotics for the reduced one-particle density matrix, implying off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO, a well-known criterion for Bose–Einstein condensation) for aN above a certain threshold and non-occurrence of ODLRO for aN below that threshold. In particular, we relate the condensate and its total mass to the amount of particles in long loops in the Feynman–Kac formula, the order parameter that Feynman suggested in [Fe53]. For aN≪N−2∕d, we prove that all loops have the minimal length one, and for aN≫N−2∕d we prove 100 percent condensation and identify the distribution of the long-loop lengths as the Poisson–Dirichlet distribution.

Criteria of off-diagonal long-range order in Bose and Fermi systems based on the Lee-Yang cluster expansion method

Naoyuki Sakumichi, Norio Kawakami, Masahito Ueda

The quantum-statistical cluster expansion method of Lee and Yang is extended to investigate off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) in one-component and multicomponent mixtures of bosons or fermions. Our formulation is applicable to both a uniform system and a trapped system without local-density approximation and allows systematic expansions of one-particle and multiparticle reduced density matrices in terms of cluster functions, which are defined for the same system with Boltzmann statistics. Each term in this expansion can be associated with a Lee-Yang graph. We elucidate a physical meaning of each Lee-Yang graph; in particular, for a mixture of ultracold atoms and bound dimers, an infinite sum of the ladder-type Lee-Yang 0-graphs is shown to lead to Bose-Einstein condensation of dimers below the critical temperature. In the case of Bose statistics, an infinite series of Lee-Yang 1-graphs is shown to converge and gives the criteria of ODLRO at the one-particle level. Applications to a dilute Bose system of hard spheres are also made. In the case of Fermi statistics, an infinite series of Lee-Yang 2-graphs is shown to converge and gives the criteria of ODLRO at the two-particle level. Applications to a two-component Fermi gas in the tightly bound limit are also made.

Characterizing the scaling with the total particle number (NNN) of the largest eigenvalue of the one-body density matrix (${\ensuremath{\lambda}}_{0}$) provides information on the occurrence of the off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) according to the Penrose-Onsager criterion.

In one dimension it is C0=0{\mathcal{C}}_{0}=0C0​=0 for nonvanishing temperature, while in three dimensions it is C0=1{\mathcal{C}}_{0}=1C0​=1 (C0=0{\mathcal{C}}_{0}=0C0​=0) for temperatures smaller (larger) than the Bose-Einstein critical temperature. We then focus our attention to D=2D=2D=2, studying the XYXYXY and the Villain models, and the weakly interacting Bose gas. The universal value of C0{\mathcal{C}}_{0}C0​ near the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless temperature TBKT{T}_{\text{BKT}}TBKT​ is 7/87/87/8. The dependence of C0{\mathcal{C}}_{0}C0​ on temperatures between T=0T=0T=0 (at which C0=1{\mathcal{C}}_{0}=1C0​=1) and TBKT{T}_{\text{BKT}}TBKT​ is studied in the different models.
