Abstract
We study the mean-field limit of the 1D bosonic canonical ensemble in a superharmonic trap. This is the regime with temperature proportional to particle number, both diverging to infinity, and correspondingly scaled interactions. We prove that the limit model is a classical field theory based on a non-linear Schr{\"o}dinger-Gibbs measure conditioned on the L2 mass, thereby obtaining a canonical analogue of previous results for the grand-canonical ensemble. We take advantage of this set-up with fixed mass to include focusing/attractive interactions/non-linearities in our study.
