Abstract

We analyse the canonical Bogoliubov free energy functional at low temperatures in the dilute limit. We prove existence of a first order phase transition and, in the limit a0aa_0\to a, we determine the critical temperature to be Tc=Tfc(1+1.49(ρ1/3a))T_{\rm{c}}=T_{\rm{fc}}(1+1.49(\rho^{1/3}a)) to leading order. Here, TfcT_{\rm{fc}} is the critical temperature of the free Bose gas, ρ\rho is the density of the gas, aa is the scattering length of the pair-interaction potential VV, and a0=(8π)1V^(0)a_0=(8\pi)^{-1}\widehat{V}(0) its first order approximation. We also prove asymptotic expansions for the free energy. In particular, we recover the Lee-Huang-Yang formula in the limit a0aa_0\to a.
