The repulsive Lieb-Liniger model can be obtained as the non-relativistic limit of the Sinh-Gordon model: all physical quantities of the latter model (S-matrix, Lagrangian and operators) can be put in correspondence with those of the former.…
The expansion of a 1D Bose gas is investigated employing the Lieb-Liniger equation of state within the local density approximation. We show that during the expansion the density profile of the gas does not follow a self-similar solution, as…

We consider pion condensation in QCD at finite isospin density $\mu_I$ and zero temperature using two-flavor chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT). The pressure is calculated to next-to-leading order (NLO) in the low-energy expansion. In…
We calculate the two-particle irreducible (2PI) effective potential of the O(N) linear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions. The approximations we use are the next-to-leading order of a 1/N expansion (for arbitrary N) and a kind of "resummed loop…
In Jaouadi et al. [Phys. Rev. A 83, 023616 (2011)] the authors derive an analytical finite-size expansion for the Bose-Einstein condensation critical temperature of an ideal Bose gas in a generic power-law trap. In the case of a harmonic…
In this thesis I investigate the thermodynamics of the O(N) nonlinear sigma model and the CP^(N-1) model in 1 + 1 dimensions, which are toy models for QCD. In particular I put emphasis on the calculation of the effective potential and the…

A famous example of gauge/gravity duality is the result that the entropy density of strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ SYM in four dimensions for large N is exactly 3/4 of the Stefan-Boltzmann limit. In this work, I revisit the massless O(N)…
