Starting from a phenomenological standard energy functional to describe the condensation of a dilute gas of bosonic quasiparticles in magnetic insulators, we find that the inclusion of a perturbation term that explicitly violates the axial…
Quantum field theory of equilibrium and nonequilibrium Bose-Einstein condensates is formulated so as to satisfy three basic requirements: the Hugenholtz-Pines relation; conservation laws; identities among vertices originating from…
A Bose-Einstein condensate produced by a Hamiltonian which is rotationally or translationally symmetric is fragmented as a direct result of these symmetries. A corresponding mean-field unfragmented state, with an identical energy to leading…
Using magnetically trapped atomic hydrogen as an example, we investigate the prospects of achieving Bose-Einstein condensation in a dilute Bose gas. We show that, if the gas is quenched sufficiently far into the critical region of the phase…
Bose condensation is central to our understanding of quantum phases of matter. Here we review Bose condensation in topologically ordered phases (also called topological symmetry breaking), where the condensing bosons have non-trivial mutual…
Temporal coherence is a fundamental property of macroscopic quantum systems, such as lasers in optics and Bose-Einstein condensates in atomic gases and it is a crucial issue for interferometry applications with light or matter waves.…

A general stability criterion is derived for the D-dimensional ground states of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, which describes attractive Bose-Einstein condensates confined in a magnetic trap. These ground states are shown to avoid the…
If the N bosons that compose an ideal Bose-Einstein gas with energy E and volume V are each assumed to have the average energy of the system E/N, the entropy is easily expressed in terms of the number of bosons N and the number of…
According to the well-known analysis by Nozi\'{e}res, the fragmentation of the condensate increases the energy of a uniform interacting Bose system. Therefore, at $T= 0$ the condensate should be nonfragmented. We perform a more detailed…
For a non-self-interacting Bose gas with a fixed, large number of particles confined to a trap, as the ground state occupation becomes macroscopic, the condensate number fluctuations remain micrscopic. However, this is the only significant…
Bose condensation is usually a low temperature phenomenon due to a low particle number density. When the number density is kept large compared to the inverse Compton volume, Bose condensation can occur at a temperature much higher than the…
Why does spontaneous symmetry breaking occur? Why is a state breaking symmetry realized? We explore an idea that measurement selects such a state even if a system is given in a state respecting the symmetry of the system. We point out that…
We present an elementary model of the collapses and revivals in the visibility of the interference between two atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. We obtain different predictions of the revival times whether we conserve or break atom number…
The density of bosonic states are calculated for spinless free massive bosons in generalised d dimensions. The number of bosons are calculated in the lowest energy state. The Bose Einstein condensation was found in generalised dimensions…
We investigate the effects of phase noise and particle loss on the dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice. Starting from the many-body master equation, we discuss the applicability of generalized mean-field…
We suggest that nonequilibrium Bose-Einstein condensates may occur in time-periodically driven interacting Bose gases. Employing the model of a periodically forced bosonic Josephson junction, we demonstrate that resonance-induced ground…
The behavior of a Bose--Einstein condensate in a homogeneous gravitational field is analyzed. We consider two different trapping potentials. Firstly, the gas is inside a finite container. The effects of the finiteness of the height of the…
The comparative behaviour of normal and anomalous averages as functions of momentum or energy, at different temperatures, is analysed for systems with Bose-Einstein condensate. Three qualitatively distinct temperature regions are revealed:…
We demonstrate analytically that a Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a harmonic trap with zero-range attractive interparticle interactions is unstable if there is more than 1 boson. Replacing the zero-range interaction by a short-range…
