Trial states for Bose gases: singular scalings and non-integrable potentials

Abstract

We review two results in which trial states for bosonic Hamiltonians were discussed. The problem of finding a trial state for a system with a hard-core potential in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime was recently solved by proving a link with the problem of finding a trial state for a system with a more regular potential in a less singular scaling, one of the type $N^{-1+3β}V(N^β\cdot)$ with $β\in(0,1)$. For both of these models we present the main result for the upper bound to the ground state energy, and discuss the key steps in the proof.

Ground state energy of a Bose gas in the Gross–Pitaevskii regime

Giulia Basti, Serena Cenatiempo, Alessandro Olgiati +2 more

We review some rigorous estimates for the ground state energy of dilute Bose gases. We start with Dyson’s upper bound, which provides the correct leading order asymptotics for hard spheres. Afterward, we discuss a rigorous version of Bogoliubov theory, which recently led to an estimate for the ground state energy in the Gross–Pitaevskii regime, valid up to second order, for particles interacting through integrable potentials. Finally, we explain how these ideas can be combined to establish a new upper bound, valid to second order, for the energy of hard spheres in the Gross–Pitaevskii limit. Here, we only sketch the main ideas; details will appear elsewhere.

A second order upper bound on the ground state energy of a Bose gas beyond the Gross–Pitaevskii regime

Giulia Basti

We consider a system of N bosons in a unitary box in the grand-canonical setting interacting through a potential with the scattering length scaling as N−1+κ, κ ∈ (0, 2/3). This regimes interpolate between the Gross–Pitaevskii regime (κ = 0) and the thermodynamic limit (κ = 2/3). In the work of Basti et al. [Forum Math., Sigma 9, E74 (2021)], as an intermediate step to prove an upper bound in agreement with the Lee–Huang–Yang formula in the thermodynamic limit, a second order upper bound on the ground state energy for κ < 5/9 was obtained. In this paper, thanks to a more careful analysis of the error terms, we extend the mentioned result to κ < 7/12.

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.

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.

A Second Order Upper Bound for the Ground State Energy of a Hard-Sphere Gas in the Gross–Pitaevskii Regime

Giulia Basti, Serena Cenatiempo, Alessandro Olgiati +2 more

Abstract We prove an upper bound for the ground state energy of a Bose gas consisting of N hard spheres with radius $$\mathfrak {a}/N$$ a / N , moving in the three-dimensional unit torus $$\Lambda $$ Λ . Our estimate captures the correct asymptotics of the ground state energy, up to errors that vanish in the limit $$N \rightarrow \infty $$ N → ∞ . The proof is based on the construction of an appropriate trial state, given by the product of a Jastrow factor (describing two-particle correlations on short scales) and of a wave function constructed through a (generalized) Bogoliubov transformation, generating orthogonal excitations of the Bose–Einstein condensate and describing correlations on large scales.

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.
