Abstract

For a system of $N$ Fermions of spin $1/2$, with its interaction potential of scattering length $a$, the classical Huang-Yang formula states that the energy density $e(ρ)$ is of the form \begin{equation*} e(ρ)=\frac{3}{5}(3π^2)^{\frac{2}{3}}ρ^{\frac{5}{3}}+2πaρ^2 +\frac{12}{35}(11-2\ln2)3^{\frac{1}{3}}π^{\frac{2}{3}}a^2ρ^{\frac{7}{3}} +o(ρ^{\frac{7}{3}}). \end{equation*} We consider a general system of $N$ Fermions of spin $1/\mathbf{q}$ with the scattering length of the interaction potential at the scale $a\propto N^{-1}$, that is, in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime. We prove the 2nd order ground state energy approximation corresponding to the Huang-Yang formula. The thermodynamic limit case shares a similar logic, and could be dealt with in a separate paper.

Abstract We prove the following formula for the ground state energy density of a dilute Bose gas with density $$\rho $$ ρ in 2 dimensions in the thermodynamic limit $$\begin{aligned} e^{\text {2D}}(\rho ) = 4\pi \rho ^2 Y\Big (1 - Y \vert \log Y \vert + \Big ( 2\Gamma + \frac{1}{2} + \log (\pi ) \Big ) Y \Big ) + o(\rho ^2 Y^{2}), \end{aligned}$$ e 2D ( ρ ) = 4 π ρ 2 Y ( 1 - Y | log Y | + ( 2 Γ + 1 2 + log ( π ) ) Y ) + o ( ρ 2 Y 2 ) , as $$\rho a^2 \rightarrow 0$$ ρ a 2 → 0 . Here $$Y= |\log (\rho a^2)|^{-1}$$ Y = | log ( ρ a 2 ) | - 1 and a is the scattering length of the two-body potential. This result in 2 dimensions corresponds to the famous Lee–Huang–Yang formula in 3 dimensions. The proof is valid for essentially all positive potentials with finite scattering length, in particular, it covers the crucial case of the hard core potential.

The second order Huang-Yang approximation to the Fermi thermodynamic pressure

Xuwen Chen, Jiahao Wu, Zhifei Zhang

We consider a dilute Fermi gas in the thermodynamic limit with interaction potential scattering length $\mathfrak{a}_0$ at temperature $T>0$ . We prove the 2nd order Huang-Yang approximation for the Fermi pressure of the system, in which there is a 2nd order term carrying the positive temperature efffect.Our formula is valid up to the temperature $T<ρ^{\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{6}}$ , which is, by scaling, also necessary for the Huang-Yang formula to hold. Here, $T_F\simρ^{\frac{2}{3}}$ is the Fermi temperature. We also establish during the course of the proof, a conjecture regarding the second order approximation of density $ρ$ by R. Seiringer \cite{FermithermoTpositive}. Our proof uses frequency localization techniques from the analysis of nonlinear PDEs and does not involve spatial localization or Bosonization. In particular, our method covers the classical Huang-Yang formula at zero temperature.We consider a dilute Fermi gas in the thermodynamic limit with interaction potential scattering length $\mathfrak{a}_0$ at temperature $T>0$.

Our work establishes a three-term asymptotic expansion of the ground state energy of a dilute gas of spin $1/2$ fermions with repulsive short-range interactions, validating a formula predicted by Huang and Yang in 1957. The formula is universal in the sense that it holds for a large class of interaction potentials and depends on those only via their scattering length. We have recently proved an upper bound on the ground state energy of the desired form, and the present work completes the program by proving the matching lower bound.Our work establishes a three-term asymptotic expansion of the ground state energy of a dilute gas of spin $1/2$ fermions with repulsive short-range interactions, validating a formula predicted by Huang and Yang in 1957.

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.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).

The Huang--Yang formula for a two-dimensional Fermi gas: upper bound

Christian Hainzl, Fabian Saxler, Robert Seiringer

We compute an upper bound on the ground state energy of a dilute two-dimensional Fermi gas with repulsive short-range interactions. Our bound can be viewed as the two-dimensional analogue of a formula derived by Huang and Yang in the three-dimensional case. It captures the first three terms in an asymptotic expansion for small $\varrho a^2$ , where $\varrho$ denotes the density and $a$ the scattering length of the interaction potential.We compute an upper bound on the ground state energy of a dilute two-dimensional Fermi gas with repulsive short-range interactions.
