Comparison between the exact and Hartree solutions of a one-dimensional many-body problem

Francesco Calogero, A. Degasperis

The exact solution for the ground state of the quantum one-dimensional $N$-boson problem with attractive $\ensuremath{\delta}$-function two-body potentials is compared with the (exact) self-consistent solution of the corresponding variational Hartree problem.

Exact solution of a one-dimensional three-body scattering problem with two-body and/or three-body inverse-square potentials

Francesco Calogero, Carlo Marchioro

The exact solution is presented of the scattering problem of three equal particles interacting in one-dimension via two- and/or three-body inverse-square potentials. Both the classical and the quantal problems are treated. It is shown that the outcome of this scattering problem is an extremely simple relation between initial and final momenta, the latter being univocally determined by the former even in the quantal case. The solvability of the problem, and the simple results just mentioned, are peculiar to the equal particle case.

Benchmarking multiconfigurational Hartree by the exact wavefunction of two harmonically trapped bosons with contact interaction

Yeongjin Gwak, Oleksandr V. Marchukov, Uwe R. Fischer

We consider two bosons in a one-dimensional harmonic trap, interacting by a contact potential, and compare the exact solution of this problem to a self-consistent numerical solution by using the multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) method. We thereby benchmark the predictions of the MCTDH method, and the statement that it is numerically exact, with a few-body problem that has an analytical solution for the most commonly experimentally realized interaction potential in ultracold quantum gases. It is found that exact ground state energy and first order correlations are accurately reproduced by MCTDH up to the intermediate dimensionless coupling strengths corresponding to typical background scattering lengths of magnetically trapped ultracold dilute Bose gases. For larger couplings, established for example by (a combination of) Feshbach resonances and optical trapping, the MCTDH approach overestimates the depth of the trap-induced correlation dip of first order correlations in position space, and underestimates the fragmentation, defined as the average relative occupation of orbitals other than the energetically lowest one. We anticipate that qualitatively similar features in the correlation function may arise for larger particle numbers, paving the way for a quantitative assessment of the accuracy of MCTDH by experiments with ultracold atoms.
