Short-distance correlation properties of the Lieb-Liniger system and momentum distributions of trapped one-dimensional atomic gases.

We derive exact closed-form expressions for the first few terms of the short-distance Taylor expansion of the one-body correlation function of the Lieb-Liniger gas. As an intermediate result, we obtain the high-p asymptotics of the momentum distribution of both free and harmonically trapped atoms and show that it obeys a universal 1/p(4) law for all values of the interaction strength. We discuss the ways to observe the predicted momentum distributions experimentally, regarding them as a sensitive identifier for the Tonks-Girardeau regime of strong correlations.

Producing Bose-Einstein condensates using optical lattices.

We relate the entropies of ensembles of atoms in optical lattices to atoms in simple traps. We then determine which ensembles of lattice-bound atoms will adiabatically transform into a Bose condensate. This shows a feasible approach to Bose condensation without evaporative cooling.

Rigorous approach to the problem of ultraviolet divergencies in dilute Bose gases.

In this Letter we consider a system of N pairwise finite-range interacting atoms and prove rigorously that in the zero-range interaction limit all the eigenstates and eigenenergies of the Hamiltonian converge to those corresponding to N atoms interacting via the Fermi-Huang regularized pseudopotential. Next, we show that the latter eigensystem (if treated exactly) is invariant under a nontrivial transformation of the interaction potential. Finally, we realize that most of the approximate schemes of many-body physics do not exhibit this invariance: We use this property to resolve all inconsistencies of the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov variational formalism known thus far.
