Optimal rate of condensation for trapped bosons in the Gross–Pitaevskii regime

Abstract

We study the Bose-Einstein condensates of trapped Bose gases in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime. We show that the ground state energy and ground states of the many-body quantum system are correctly described by the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in the large particle number limit, and provide the optimal convergence rate. Our work extends the previous results of Lieb, Seiringer and Yngvason on the leading order convergence, and of Boccato, Brennecke, Cenatiempo and Schlein on the homogeneous gas. Our method relies on the idea of 'completing the square', inspired by recent works of Brietzke, Fournais and Solovej on the Lee-Huang-Yang formula, and a general estimate for Bogoliubov quadratic Hamiltonians on Fock space.

Bose gases in the Gross–Pitaevskii limit: A survey of some rigorous results

Benjamin Schlein

We review some mathematical work on the Bose gas in the Gross–Pitaevskii regime. We start with the classical results by Lieb, Seiringer and Yngvason on the ground-state energy and by Lieb and Seiringer on the existence of Bose–Einstein condensation. Afterwards, we discuss some more recent progress, based on a rigorous version of Bogoliubov theory.

Gross–Pitaevskii dynamics for Bose–Einstein condensates

Christian Brennecke, Benjamin Schlein

We study the time-evolution of initially trapped Bose-Einstein condensates in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime. Under a physically motivated assumption on the energy of the initial data, we show that condensation is preserved by the many-body evolution and that the dynamics of the condensate wave function can be described by the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation. With respect to previous works, we provide optimal bounds on the rate of condensation (i.e. on the number of excitations of the Bose-Einstein condensate). To reach this goal, we combine the method of \cite{LNS}, where fluctuations around the Hartree dynamics for $N$-particle initial data in the mean-field regime have been analyzed, with ideas from \cite{BDS}, where the evolution of Fock-space initial data in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime has been considered.

Ground state energy of mixture of Bose gases

Alessandro Michelangeli, Phan Thành Nam, Alessandro Olgiati

We consider the asymptotic behavior of a system of multi-component trapped bosons, when the total particle number [Formula: see text] becomes large. In the dilute regime, when the interaction potentials have the length scale of order [Formula: see text], we show that the leading order of the ground state energy is captured correctly by the Gross–Pitaevskii energy functional and that the many-body ground state fully condensates on the Gross–Pitaevskii minimizers. In the mean-field regime, when the interaction length scale is [Formula: see text], we are able to verify Bogoliubov’s approximation and obtain the second order expansion of the ground state energy. While such asymptotic results have several precursors in the literature on one-component condensates, the adaptation to the multi-component setting is non-trivial in various respects and the analysis will be presented in detail.

Third Order Corrections to the Ground State Energy of a Bose Gas in the Gross–Pitaevskii Regime

Cristina Caraci, Alessandro Olgiati, Diane Saint Aubin +1 more

Abstract For a translation invariant system of N bosons in the Gross–Pitaevskii regime, we establish a precise bound for the ground state energy $$E_N$$ E N . While the leading, order N , contribution to $$E_N$$ E N has been known since (Lieb et al. in Phys Rev A 61:043602, 2000; Lieb and Yngvason in Phys Rev Lett 80:2504–2507, 1998) and the second order corrections (of order one) have been first determined in Boccato et al. (Acta Math 222(2):219–335, 2019), our estimate also resolves the next term in the asymptotic expansion of $$E_N$$ E N , which is of the order $$(\log N) / N$$ ( log N ) / N .

Upper Bound for the Grand Canonical Free Energy of the Bose Gas in the Gross–Pitaevskii Limit for General Interaction Potentials

Marco Caporaletti, Andreas Deuchert

We consider a homogeneous Bose gas in the Gross-Pitaevskii limit at temperatures that are comparable to the critical temperature for Bose-Einstein condensation. Recently, an upper bound for the grand canonical free energy was proved in Boccato et al. (SIAM J Math Anal 56(2):2611-2660, 2024) capturing two novel contributions. First, the free energy of the interacting condensate is given in terms of an effective theory describing the probability distribution of the number of condensed particles. Second, the free energy of the thermally excited particles equals that of a temperature-dependent Bogoliubov Hamiltonian. We extend this result to a more general class of interaction potentials, including interactions with a hard core. Our proof follows a different approach than the one in Boccato et al. (SIAM J Math Anal 56(2):2611-2660, 2024): We model microscopic correlations between the particles by a Jastrow factor and exploit a cancellation in the computation of the energy that emerges due to the different length scales in the system.

Quantitative erivation of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation

Niels Benedikter, Gustavo de Oliveira, Benjamin Schlein

Starting from first-principle many-body quantum dynamics, we show that the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates can be approximated by the time-dependent nonlinear Gross-Pitaevskii equation, giving a bound on the rate of the convergence. Initial data are constructed on the bosonic Fock space applying an appropriate Bogoliubov transformation on a coherent state with expected number of particles $\mathit{N}$. The Bogoliubov transformation plays a crucial role; it produces the correct microscopic correlations among the particles. Our analysis shows that, on the level of the one-particle reduced density, the form of the initial data is preserved by the many-body evolution, up to a small error that vanishes as $\mathit{N}^{-1/2}$ in the limit of large $\mathit{N}$.
