On the derivation of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation

Riccardo Adami (2005)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

This article reflects in its content the talk the author gave at the XVII Congresso dell’Unione Matematica Italiana, held in Milano, 8-13 September 2003. We review about some recent results on the problem of deriving the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in dimension one from the dynamics of a quantum system with a large number of identical bosons. We explain the motivations for some peculiar choices (shape of the interaction potential, scaling, initial datum). Open problems are pointed out and difficulties...

Propagation estimates for Dirac operators and application to scattering theory

Thierry Daudé (2004)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this paper, we prove propagation estimates for a massive Dirac equation in flat spacetime. This allows us to construct the asymptotic velocity operator and to analyse its spectrum. Eventually, using this new information, we are able to obtain complete scattering results; that is to say we prove the existence and the asymptotic completeness of the Dollard modified wave operators.

Propagation of singularities in many-body scattering in the presence of bound states

András Vasy (1999)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

In these lecture notes we describe the propagation of singularities of tempered distributional solutions u 𝒮 ' of ( H - λ ) u = 0 , where H is a many-body hamiltonian H = Δ + V , Δ 0 , V = a V a , and λ is not a threshold of H , under the assumption that the inter-particle (e.g. two-body) interactions V a are real-valued polyhomogeneous symbols of order - 1 (e.g. Coulomb-type with the singularity at the origin removed). Here the term “singularity” provides a microlocal description of the lack of decay at infinity. Our result is then that the...
