We calculate the number and energy densities of a quasi-2D Bose-Einstein gas constrained within a thin region of infinite extent but of finite width d. The BEC critical transition temperature then becomes an explicit function of d. We use…
For the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), differences between mean-field (Gross-Pitaevskii) physics and $N$-particle quantum physics often disappear if the BEC becomes larger and larger. In particular, the timescale for which…

Atomic interactions play an important role in the properties of ultracold atomic gases. In single component bosonic systems, its effect is already present at the critical point for the Bose-Einstein condensate phase transition by shifting…
We present a theoretical study of the ground state of the BCS-BEC crossover in dilute two-dimensional Fermi gases. While the mean-field theory provides a simple and analytical equation of state, the pressure is equal to that of a…
We consider the nonrelativistic interacting Bose gas at zero and finite temperature. Using the 1/N-expansion, we derive expressions for the free energy density and the number density to next-to-leading order in 1/N. Outside the critical…
This paper presents a conserving gapless mean-field theory for weakly interacting Bose gases. We first construct a mean-field Luttinger-Ward thermodynamic functional in terms of the condensate wave function $\Psi$ and the Nambu Green's…

Bose-Einstein condensation, observed in either strongly interacting liquid helium or weakly interacting atomic Bose gases, is widely known to be a second-order phase transition. Here, we predict a first-order Bose-Einstein condensation in a…
