Fluctuations of $N$-particle quantum dynamics around the nonlinear Schrodinger equation


Abstract in English

We consider a system of $N$ bosons interacting through a singular two-body potential scaling with $N$ and having the form $N^{3beta-1} V (N^beta x)$, for an arbitrary parameter $beta in (0,1)$. We provide a norm-approximation for the many-body evolution of initial data exhibiting Bose-Einstein condensation in terms of a cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation for the condensate wave function and of a unitary Fock space evolution with a generator quadratic in creation and annihilation operators for the fluctuations.
