The Bose gas: A subtle many-body problem

Elliott H. Lieb

Now that the properties of the ground state of quantum-mechanical many-body systems (bosons) at low density, , can be examined experimentally it is appropriate to revisit some o…

Ground States in Non-relativistic Quantum Electrodynamics

Marcel Griesemer, Elliott H. Lieb, Michael Loss

The excited states of a charged particle interacting with the quantized electromagnetic field and an external potential all decay, but such a particle should have a true ground sta…

Ground State Energy of the One-Component Charged Bose Gas

Elliott H. Lieb, Jan Philip Solovej

The model considered here is the `jellium' model in which there is a uniform, fixed background with charge density in a large volume and in which particles of elec…

A Rigorous Derivation of the Gross-Pitaevskii Energy Functional for a Two-Dimensional Bose Gas

Elliott H. Lieb, Robert Seiringer, Jakob Yngvason

We consider the ground state properties of an inhomogeneous two-dimensional Bose gas with a repulsive, short range pair interaction and an external confining potential. In the limi…

Lieb-Thirring Inequalities

Elliott H. Lieb

This is a brief review of Lieb-Thirring inequalities for eigenvalues of the Schroedinger operator and lower bounds for the quantum mechanical kinetic energy (and some generalizatio…
