In systems above one dimension a continuously degenerate minimum of the single particle dispersion is realized due to one or a combination of system-parameters such as lattice structure, isotropic spin-orbit coupling, and interactions. A…
The distinction between a classical liquid and a classical ordered solid is easy and depends on their different symmetries. The distinction between a classical glass and a classical liquid is more difficult, since the glass is also…
We propose a new method to describe the interacting bose gas at zero temperature. We use the decomposition of the logarithm of the wave function into the irreducible $n$-point functions. We argue that in the low density limit this expansion…
In the quantum rotor model with random exchange interactions having a non-zero mean, three phases, a 1) phase (Bose) glass, 2) superfluid, and 3) Mott insulator, meet at a bi-critical point. We demonstrate that proximity to the bi-critical…
According to a formula that was put forward many decades ago the ground state energy per particle of an interacting, dilute Bose gas at density $\rho$ is $2\pi\hbar^2\rho a/m$ to leading order in $\rho a^3\ll 1$, where $a$ is the scattering…
I study the zero-temperature phase behavior of bosonic particles living on the nodes of a regular spherical mesh ("Platonic mesh") and interacting through an extended Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian. Only the hard-core version of the model is…
We consider the condensate of $q$-deformed bosons as a model of dark matter. Our observations demonstrate that for all $q$ values, the system condenses below a $q$-dependent critical temperature $T^{q}_c$. The critical temperature…

We show that a Bose-condensed gas under extreme rotation in a 2D anisotropic trap, forms a novel elongated quantum fluid which has a roton-maxon excitation spectrum. For a sufficiently large interaction strength, the roton energy reaches…

Single-atomic impurities immersed in a dilute Bose gas in the spherically symmetric harmonic trap potentials are studied at zero temperature. In order to find the ground state of the polarons, we present a conditional variational method…
Using \emph{in situ} measurements on a quasi two-dimensional, harmonically trapped $^{87}$Rb gas, we infer various equations of state for the equivalent homogeneous fluid. From the dependence of the total atom number and the central density…
We propose a method for systematically finding ground states of spinor Bose-Einstein condensates by utilizing symmetry properties of the system. By this method, we can find not only an inert state, whose symmetry is maximal in the manifold…
It is well known that a Bose-Einstein (BE) condensate of atoms exists in a system of interacting Bose atoms at $T\lesssim T^{(i)}_{c}$, where $T^{(i)}_{c}$ is the BE condensation temperature of an ideal gas. It is also generally accepted…
