Expansion of the energy of the ground state of the Gross-Pitaevskii
equation in the Thomas-Fermi limit    [PDF]

Clement Gallo

From the asymptotic expansion of the ground state of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in the Thomas--Fermi limit given by Gallo and Pelinovsky in a previous work, we infer an asymptotic expansion of the kinetic, potential and total energy of the ground state. In particular, we give a rigorous proof of the expansion of the kinetic energy calculated by Dalfovo, Pitaevskii and Stringari in the case where the space dimension is 3. Moreover, we calculate one more term in this expansion, and we generalize the result to space dimensions 1 and 2.
