In 1963 a partial differential equation with a convolution non-linearity was introduced in connection with a quantum mechanical many-body problem, namely the gas of bosonic particles. This equation is mathematically interesting for several…
General analytic energy bounds are derived for N-boson systems governed by semirelativistic Hamiltonians of the form H=\sum_{i=1}^N \sqrt(p_i^2+m^2) + \sum_{1=i<j}^N V(r_{ij}), where V(r) is a static attractive pair potential. A…

We consider a system of $N$-Bosons with a two-body interaction potential $V \in L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)+L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^3)$, possibly singular than the Coulomb interaction. We show that, with $H^1(\mathbb{R}^3)$ initial data, the difference…
The derivation of effective equations for interacting many body systems has seen a lot of progress in the recent years. While dealing with classical systems, singular potentials are quite challenging, comparably strong results are known to…
The mathematically exact solution of a one-dimensional (1D) quantum N-identical-boson system with zero-range pair interaction has been well known. We find that this solution is non-physical, since there exists a paradox of its energy…
I present recent results in quantum statistical mechanics, obtained in joint works with Mathieu Lewin and Phan Th{\`a}nh Nam. We consider a certain mean-field limit of the grand-canonical ensemble for a Bose gas at positive temperature. In…
We investigate the ground-state properties of weakly repulsive one-dimensional bosons in the presence of an attractive zero-range impurity potential. First, we derive mean-field solutions to the problem on a finite ring for the two…
We present a novel approach to modeling dynamics of trapped, degenerate, weakly interacting Bose gases beyond the mean field limit. We transform a many-body problem to the interaction representation with respect to a suitably chosen part of…
We investigate the effect of diagonal disorder on bosons in an optical lattice described by an Anderson-Hubbard model at zero temperature. It is known that within Gutzwiller mean-field theory spatially resolved calculations suffer…
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…
We study the ground state of a dilute Bose gas in a scaling limit where the Gross-Pitaevskii functional emerges. This is a repulsive non-linear Schr\"odinger functional whose quartic term is proportional to the scattering length of the…
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…
