Abstract

We consider a dilute and ultracold bosonic gas of weakly-interacting atoms. Within the framework of quantum field theory, we derive a zero-temperature modified Gross–Pitaevskii equation with beyond-mean-field corrections due to quantum depletion and anomalous density. This result is obtained from the stationary equation of the Bose–Einstein order parameter coupled to the Bogoliubov–de Gennes equations of the out-of-condensate field operator. We show that, in the presence of a generic external trapping potential, the key steps to get the modified Gross–Pitaevskii equation are the semiclassical approximation for the Bogoliubov–de Gennes equations, a slowly-varying order parameter and a small quantum depletion. In the uniform case, from the modified Gross–Pitaevskii equation, we get the familiar equation of state with Lee–Huang–Yang correction.

Self-consistent description of Bose–Bose droplets: modified gapless Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov method

Paweł Zin, Maciej Pylak, Zbigniew Idziaszek +1 more

Abstract We define a formalism of a self-consistent description of the ground state of a weakly interacting Bose system, accounting for higher order terms in expansion of energy in the diluteness parameter. The approach is designed to be applied to a Bose–Bose mixture in a regime of weak collapse where quantum fluctuations lead to stabilization of the system and formation of quantum liquid droplets. The approach is based on the generalized Gross–Pitaevskii equation accounting for quantum depletion and renormalized anomalous density terms. The equation is self-consistently coupled to modified Bogoliubov equations. We derive well defined procedure to calculate the zero temperature renormalized anomalous density—the quantity needed to correctly describe the formation of quantum liquid droplet. We pay particular attention to the case of droplets harmonically confined in some directions. The method allows to determine the Lee–Huang–Yang-type contribution to the chemical potential of inhomogeneous droplets when the local density approximation fails.

Derivation of the Gross-Pitaevskii Equation for Condensed Bosons from the Bogoliubov–de Gennes Equations for Superfluid Fermions

P. Pieri, Giancarlo Calvanese Strinati

We derive the time-independent Gross-Pitaevskii equation at zero temperature for condensed bosons, which form as bound-fermion pairs when the mutual fermionic attractive interaction is sufficiently strong, from the strong-coupling limit of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations that describe superfluid fermions in the presence of an external potential. Three-body corrections to the Gross-Pitaevskii equation are also obtained by our approach. Our results are relevant to the recent advances with ultracold fermionic atoms in a trap.

Lee-Huang-Yang dynamics emergent from a direct Wigner representation

King Lun Ng, Maciej Bartłomiej Kruk, Piotr Deuar

We demonstrate how the beyond-mean-field Lee-Huang-Yang (LHY) corrections and its related physics can be naturally incorporated into the representation of an ultracold Bose gas using the truncated Wigner approach without invoking effective energy terms or local density approximation. By generating a Bogoliubov ground-state representation with appropriately tailored bare interaction strength $g_0$ and condensate density $n_0$, the expected initial energy and densities are obtained while retaining access to quantum effects beyond the reach of the extended Gross-Pitaevskii equation (EGPE) formulation. This approach enables the study of correlations, coherence decay, single realisations, and the onset of quantum fluctuation effects with growing interaction strength. Numerical demonstrations for a weakly interacting single-component Bose gas show that observables deviate significantly from both the plain GPE and the EGPE incorporating LHY corrections. In regimes of strong interaction, many of the interference effects predicted by the GPE and EGPE are suppressed, and the EGPE offers no improvement over the plain GPE compared to the full Wigner model. In the weakly interaction limit, the EGPE appears accurate but resolving its deviation from mean-field results requires extensive ensemble averaging.

Quantum Fluctuations and Gross-Pitaevskii Theory

S. Stringari

Abstract Using the linearized version of the time dependent Gross–Pitaevskii equation, we calculate the dynamic response of a Bose–Einstein condensed gas to periodic density and particle perturbations. The zero temperature limit of the fluctuation—dissipation theorem is used to evaluate the corresponding quantum fluctuations induced by the elementary excitations in the ground state. In uniform conditions the predictions of Bogoliubov theory, including the infrared divergency of the particle distribution function and the quantum depletion of the condensate, are exactly reproduced by Gross–Pitaevskii theory. Results are also given for the crossed particle-density response function and the extension of the formalism to nonuniform systems is discussed. The generalization of the Gross–Pitaevskii equation to include beyond mean field effects is finally considered and an explicit result for the chemical potential is found, in agreement with the prediction of Lee–Huang–Yang theory.

A study of trapped Bose gas beyond mean-field theory

Arup Banerjee, Manoranjan P. Singh

We study the ground-state properties of dilute Bose gas confined to both isotropic and anisotropic traps to assess the accuracy of Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) theory. To go beyond GP approximation we use Huang-Yang theory of interatomic interaction energy for hard-sphere Bose gas and use a variational method to solve the resulting modified GP equation. We also make an analytic estimate of the corrections due to higher-order terms in the interatomic interaction energy. We find that the corrections are of the order of 1 percent. However, there is a qualitative change in the density profile due to presence of logarithimic term in the interaction energy for large N (number of atoms)

Diagonalizing Bose Gases in the Gross–Pitaevskii Regime and Beyond

Morris Brooks

We present a novel approach to the Bogoliubov theory of dilute Bose gases, allowing for an elementary derivation of the celebrated Lee-Huang-Yang formula in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime. Furthermore, we identify the low lying excitation spectrum beyond the Gross-Pitaevskii scaling, extending a recent result (Brennecke et al. in Rev Math Phys 34, 2022) to significantly more singular scaling regimes. Finally, we provide an upper bound on the ground state energy in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime that captures the correct expected order of magnitude beyond the Lee-Huang-Yang formula.
