We review how the local particle number cutoff introduced in [11] is used to build trial states for the dilute Bose gas that capture the substantial correlation structure of the ground state in the thermodynamic limit. In particular, we provide a simplified derivation of the Lee-Huang-Yang correction as an upper bound for the ground state energy.
For a translation invariant system of $N$ bosons in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime, we establish a precise bound for the ground state energy $E_N$. While the leading, order $N$, contribution to $E_N$ has been known since [30,28] and the second order corrections (of order one) have been first determined in [5], our estimate also resolves the next term in the asymptotic expansion of $E_N$, which is of the order $(\log N) / N$.
We consider a dilute Bose gas in the thermodynamic limit. We prove an upper bound for the ground state energy per unit volume, capturing the expected third order term, as predicted by Wu, Hugenholtz-Pines and Sawada.
