Abstract

We consider the ground state energy of the Lieb-Liniger gas with δ\delta interaction in the weak coupling regime γ0\gamma\to0. For bosons with repulsive interaction, previous studies gave the expansion eB(γ)γ4γ3/2/3π+(1/61/π2)γ2e_{\text{B}}(\gamma)\simeq\gamma-4\gamma^{3/2}/3\pi+(1/6-1/\pi^{2})\gamma^{2}. Using a numerical solution of the Lieb-Liniger integral equation discretized with MM points and finite strength γ\gamma of the interaction, we obtain very accurate numerics for the next orders after extrapolation on MM and γ\gamma. The coefficient of γ5/2\gamma^{5/2} in the expansion is found approximately equal to 0.00158769986550594498929-0.00158769986550594498929, accurate within all digits shown. This value is supported by a numerical solution of the Bethe equations with NN particles followed by extrapolation on NN and γ\gamma. It was identified as (3ζ(3)/81/2)/π3(3\zeta(3)/8-1/2)/\pi^{3} by G. Lang. The next two coefficients are also guessed from numerics. For balanced spin 1/21/2 fermions with attractive interaction, the best result so far for the ground state energy was eF(γ)π2/12γ/2+γ2/6e_{\text{F}}(\gamma)\simeq\pi^{2}/12-\gamma/2+\gamma^{2}/6. An analogue double extrapolation scheme leads to the value ζ(3)/π4-\zeta(3)/\pi^{4} for the coefficient of γ3\gamma^{3}.
