# Derivation of the dipolar Gross-Pitaevskii energy

## TL;DR

This paper proves that the energy and minimizers of a many-body bosonic system with dipolar interactions converge to a dipolar Gross-Pitaevskii functional as the number of particles grows large, under specific scaling conditions.

## Contribution

It establishes the convergence of the many-body energy and minimizers to the dipolar Gross-Pitaevskii functional for bosons with long-range dipolar interactions, extending previous results to this interaction type.

## Key findings

- Convergence of energy and minimizers proven for large N
- Results valid under specific interaction scaling conditions
- Extends understanding of dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates

## Abstract

We consider N trapped bosons in R 3 interacting via a pair potential w which has a long range of dipolar type. We show the convergence of the energy and of the minimizers for the many-body problem towards those of the dipolar Gross-Pitaevskii functional, when N tends to infinity. In addition to the usual cubic interaction term, the latter has the long range dipolar interaction. Our results hold under the assumption that the two-particle interaction is scaled in the form N 3$\beta$--1 w(N $\beta$ x) for some 0 $\le$ $\beta$ \textless{} $\beta$max with $\beta$max = 1/3 + s/(45 + 42s) where s is related to the growth of the trapping potential.
