Bose–Einstein Condensation with Optimal Rate for Trapped Bosons in the Gross–Pitaevskii Regime

Abstract

We consider a Bose gas consisting of $N$ particles in $\mathbb{R}^3$, trapped by an external field and interacting through a two-body potential with scattering length of order $N^{-1}$. We prove that low energy states exhibit complete Bose-Einstein condensation with optimal rate, generalizing previous work in \cite{BBCS1, BBCS4}, restricted to translation invariant systems. This extends recent results in \cite{NNRT}, removing the smallness assumption on the size of the scattering length.
