Derivation of Hartree theory for two-dimensional attractive Bose gases in almost Gross–Pitaevskii regime

Abstract

We study the ground state energy of trapped two-dimensional Bose gases with mean-field type interactions that can be attractive. We prove the stability of second kind of the many-body system and the convergence of the ground state energy per particle to that of a non-linear Schrödinger (NLS) energy functional. Notably, we can take any polynomial scaling of the interaction, and even exponential scalings arbitrarily close to the Gross–Pitaevskii regime, which is a drastic improvement on the best-known result for systems with attractive interactions. As a consequence of the stability of second kind we also obtain Bose–Einstein condensation for the many-body ground states for a much improved range of the diluteness parameter.

Improved stability for 2D attractive Bose gases

Phan Thành Nam, Nicolas Rougerie

We study the ground-state energy of N attractive bosons in the plane. The interaction is scaled for the gas to be dilute so that the corresponding mean-field problem is a local non-linear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. We improve the conditions under which one can prove that the many-body problem is stable (of the second kind). This implies, using previous results, that the many-body ground states and dynamics converge to the NLS ones for an extended range of diluteness parameters.

The mean-field approximation and the non-linear Schrödinger functional for trapped Bose gases

Mathieu Lewin B, Phan Thành Nam, Nicolas Rougerie

We study the ground state of a trapped Bose gas, starting from the full many-body Schrödinger Hamiltonian, and derive the non-linear Schrödinger energy functional in the limit of a large particle number, when the interaction potential converges slowly to a Dirac delta function. Our method is based on quantitative estimates on the discrepancy between the full many-body energy and its mean-field approximation using Hartree states. These are proved using finite dimensional localization and a quantitative version of the quantum de Finetti theorem. Our approach covers the case of attractive interactions in the regime of stability. In particular, our main new result is a derivation of the 2D attractive non-linear Schrödinger ground state.

Stability of attractive 3D Bose gases with repulsive three-body interactions

Arnaud Triay, François Louis Antoine Visconti

We consider three-dimensional Bose gases with attractive two-body interactions and repulsive three-body interactions. We prove the stability of the second kind of the system for a large class of interaction potentials and scaling regimes, which includes the Gross--Pitaevskii regime for the three-body potential. In addition, we even prove the classical stability of the system for a more restrictive class of interactions and scaling regimes. The main ingredient of the proof is a bound that was derived recently in a study by the authors on the dynamics of Bose gases with three-body interactions in the Gross--Pitaevskii regime (2026).

MEAN-FIELD LIMIT OF BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATES WITH ATTRACTIVE INTERACTIONS IN R^2

郭玉劲, 陆璐

Starting with the many-body Schrdinger Hamiltonian in R~2, we prove that the ground state energy of a two-dimensional interacting Bose gas with the pairwise attractive interaction approaches to the minimum of the Gross-Pitaevskii energy functional in the meanfield regime, as the particle number N→∞ and however the scattering length κ→0. By fixing N|κ|, this leads to the mean-field approximation of Bose-Einstein condensates with attractive interactions in R~2.

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.
