Short time propagation in interacting bosonic systems — •Benjamin Geiger, Quirin Hummel, Juan-Diego Urbina, and Klaus Richter — Institut für Theoretische Physik Universität Regensburg, 93040 Regensburg, Germany

We present a formalism to calculate thermodynamic properties of interacting bosonic gases as well as the smooth (Weyl) contribution to density of states by means of short-time propagation, and compare its analytical predictions against quantum integrable models. As an essential input of our approach, we were able to construct the many-body propagator for a one-dimensional unconfined bosonic gas with delta interactions of variable strength. Using this propagator we can give short-time approximations for the Lieb-Liniger model and non-integrable systems including external harmonic potentials. Furthermore we can think of using the spatial information and the time dependence of the propagator to calculate e.g. two-point correlations or to investigate quantum quenches.
