Abstract
We perform a rigorous analysis of the anelastic approximation for the Gross-Pitaevskii equation with -dependent chemical potential. For general initial data and periodic boundary condition, we show that as , equivalently the Planck constant tends to zero, the density converges toward the chemical potential and the velocity field converges to the anelastic system. When the chemical potential is a constant, the anelastic system will reduce to the incompressible Euler equations. The resonant effects the singular limit process and it can be overcome because of oscillation-cancelation.
