We review our recent result on the rigorous derivation of the renormalized Gibbs measure from the many-body Gibbs state in 1D and 2D. The many-body renormalization is accomplished by simply tuning the chemical potential in the…
We determine the regime where the widespread classical field description for quantum Bose gases is quantitatively accurate in 1d, 2d, and 3d by a careful study of the ideal gas limit. Numerical benchmarking in 1d shows that the ideal gas…
For a dilute two-dimensional Bose gas the universal equation of state has a logarithmic dependence on the s-wave scattering length. Here we derive non-universal corrections to this equation of state taking account finite-range effects of…
