Abstract
This is a study of the equilibrium thermodynamics of a mean-field model of an interacting boson gas perturbed by a term quadratic in the occupation numbers of the free-gas energy-levels. We prove the existence of the pressure in the thermodynamic limit. We obtain also a variational formula for the pressure; this enables us to compare the effect of a smooth quadratic perturbation with that of a singular one (the Huang-Yang-Luttinger model). The proof uses a large deviation result for the occupation measure of the free boson gas which is of independent interest.
