First-order asymptotic corrections to the meanfield limitMatthias Christandl1, •Robert Matjeschk2, Friederike Trimborn2,3, and Reinhard Werner21Institute for Theoretical Physics, ETH Zürich, Wolfgang-Pauli-Strasse 27, CH-8093 Zürich, Switzerland — 2Leibniz Universität Hannover — 3Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung

We derive a complete algebraic theory for treating permutation invariant problems beyond separability to first order in the asymptotics. Our work builds on a C*-algebraic theory for permutation invariant operators on n-particles, with an algebraic description of the limit n→∞ (the meanfield limit). We use the fluctuation ansatz, a version of a non-commutative central limit, and derive a continuous-variable algebra (the fluctuation algebra) that asymptotically describes the 1/n-corrections to this meanfield limit. Using the fluctuation algebra, we derive a method for estimating the ground-state energy of meanfield models up to first order, and for estimating the time-evolution of correlations between different particles. Moreover, we show that the meanfield ground-state problem is closely related to the finite de Finetti problem and therefore obtain a lower bound, complementing recent results in this direction.
