The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.

Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace

1 · Prerequisites

2 · Summary

Scope

This page develops symmetric and antisymmetric Fock spaces for a specified finite or countable orthonormal mode basis, occupation bases, actual weighted domains for bosonic creation and annihilation operators, bounded fermionic CAR operators, and exact self-adjoint diagonal energy and number multipliers. Grand occupation traces are stated with their countable-choice and summability hypotheses; trace normalization alone does not imply finite energy moments or parameter differentiability. The Fock construction does not select the statistics of a physical species.

The physical items separately adopt Bose/Fermi sector assignment and canonical or grand-canonical Gibbs preparation. The dilute comparison has an explicit squared-fugacity error. The oscillator result uses the current proved Hermite basis and self-adjoint domain; the finite spectral periodic gas is not identified with a differential periodic Laplacian. The ideal Fermi endpoint and fixed-mean-density Bose condensation are restricted model deductions. The latter is grand canonical and its zero-mode density does not concentrate above critical density.

The lattice Gaussian result uses the exact Gaussian/gamma formulas of Gaussian, gamma and beta product integrals from the required CSM page. That helper proves its Gaussian values and parameter derivatives from the closed forms and the Gamma recurrence; no M17 supplier is needed. The QSM lattice argument uses the Gaussian value and its finite products. The five extended-framework inventory entries whose page field names auxiliary pages are placed here according to their home value; this follows the paired inventory's page record and is noted in batch evidence.

All energies and chemical potentials in physical applications are joules; temperature T is in K, Boltzmann's constant kB is in J K−1, and β=(kBT)−1 is in J−1. The reduced Planck constant ℏ is in J s, angular frequency ω is in s−1, mass is in kg, lengths are in m, and mode labels and occupations are dimensionless. Derived model predictions are not reported observations.

Symmetric and antisymmetric identical-particle Fock spaces

Definition

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice, written ACω (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)). Let I be a specified finite or countably infinite mode set with a fixed enumeration, and let h=ℓ2(I) have its coordinate orthonormal basis (ej)j∈I. Put h⊗0=C, h⊗1=h, and define each completed tensor power recursively by h⊗(n+1)=h⊗n⊗^h, using the first-variable-linear product inner product of Hilbert tensor construction: inner product, completion and product bases. For n≥1, let Uπ permute the tensor factors for π∈Sn, and let

P±(n)=1n!∑π∈Snχ±(π)Uπ,χ+(π)=1,χ−(π)=sgn⁡(π),

with P±(0)=IC. The permutation-sector theorem Permutation sector projections on the n-fold tensor power makes these orthogonal projections. Define the symmetric and antisymmetric sectors H±(n):=ran⁡P±(n). Define

F±(h):={ψ=(ψn)n≥0:ψn∈H±(n), ∑n≥0∥ψn∥2<∞},⟨ψ,φ⟩:=∑n≥0⟨ψn,φn⟩.

The vector Ω=(1,0,0,…) is the vacuum, and the finite-particle subspace consists of vectors with only finitely many nonzero components.

This is a mathematical construction for a specified mode basis. Choosing its symmetric or antisymmetric sector for a physical species is a separate model postulate. No spin-statistics theorem or physical species assignment is part of the definition.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A finite or countable enumerated mode set I, the coordinate Hilbert space ℓ2(I), its completed tensor powers, and the symmetric-group action.

[A1]

The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω): every at most countable family of nonempty sets has a choice function.

[F1]

Hilbert tensor construction: inner product, completion and product bases, Statement (c)–(d): the completed tensor product of complex Hilbert spaces has the product inner product, is complete, and the products of complete orthonormal families form a complete orthonormal family.

[F2]

Permutation sector projections on the n-fold tensor power, Statement (a)–(c): the factor permutations are unitary, and their symmetric and antisymmetric averages are orthogonal projections whose ranges are the fixed and sign-transforming subspaces.

Proof

1.1givenA1F1F2algebra

The tensor factors and product pairing in the Definition are supplied by [F1]. For every n≥1, [F2] makes P±(n) an orthogonal projection. The range of an orthogonal projection is closed: if Pxk=xk and xk→x, boundedness of P gives Px=lim⁡kPxk=lim⁡kxk=x. Therefore each H±(n) is a closed subspace of the complete tensor Hilbert space and is itself complete.

1.2givenF1F3algebra

For ψ,φ∈F±(h), Cauchy–Schwarz for the square-summable nonnegative sequences (∥ψn∥)n and (∥φn∥)n gives ∑n∣⟨ψn,φn⟩∣≤(∑n∥ψn∥2)1/2(∑n∥φn∥2)1/2<∞. Hence the displayed pairing converges absolutely, is sesquilinear, and is positive definite because ⟨ψ,ψ⟩=∑n∥ψn∥2=0 forces every coordinate to vanish.

2.1step 1.1step 1.2algebra

Let (ψ(k))k be Cauchy in this norm. For each fixed n, (ψn(k))k is Cauchy in the complete sector H±(n), so it converges to some ψn∈H±(n). If k≥K and ∥ψ(k)−ψ(m)∥≤ε for all m≥K, then for every finite N, passing m→∞ in the finite sum yields ∑n≤N∥ψn−ψn(k)∥2≤ε2. Also ∑n≤N∥ψn∥2≤2∥ψ(k)∥2+2ε2. Taking suprema over finite N proves ∑n∥ψn∥2<∞, so ψ∈F±(h), and then ∥ψ(k)−ψ∥≤ε for all k≥K. Thus the direct sum is complete.

3.1step 1.2algebra∎

For ψ∈F±(h), truncating after sector N changes its squared norm by ∑n>N∥ψn∥2→0. Therefore the finite-particle subspace is dense and Ω is a unit vector.

Occupation bases and actual CCR/CAR domains

Statement

Let I and F±(ℓ2(I)) be as in Symmetric and antisymmetric identical-particle Fock spaces. Define

ΩB:={m:I→N0:m has finite support},ΩF:={m:I→{0,1}:m has finite support}.

For either statistics choice, write ∣m∣=∑jmj. If m∈ΩB, choose the elementary tensor xm containing mj copies of each mode j in the fixed order and set

∣m⟩B:=∣m∣!∏jmj! P+(∣m∣)xm.

If m∈ΩF, list its occupied modes increasingly in the fixed enumeration, let xm be their elementary tensor and set

∣m⟩F:=∣m∣! P−(∣m∣)xm.

For ∣m∣=0, both vectors are the vacuum. These vectors form orthonormal bases and define unitary identifications F+(ℓ2(I))≅ℓ2(ΩB) and F−(ℓ2(I))≅ℓ2(ΩF).

On the finite-support span Dfin of the bosonic basis, define

aj∣m⟩B=mj∣m−1j⟩B,aj†∣m⟩B=mj+1∣m+1j⟩B,

where the annihilation term is zero when mj=0. Their maximal closed extensions have domains

D(aj)={c:∑m∈ΩBmj∣cm∣2<∞},D(aj†)={c:∑m∈ΩB(mj+1)∣cm∣2<∞},

and aj†=aj∗. On Dfin, they satisfy [ai,aj†]=δijI, [ai,aj]=0, and [ai†,aj†]=0.

On the fermionic basis define

cj∣m⟩F=(−1)∑i<jmimj∣m−1j⟩F,cj†∣m⟩F=(−1)∑i<jmi(1−mj)∣m+1j⟩F.

These operators are bounded on the full fermionic Fock space and satisfy {ci,cj†}=δijI and {ci,cj}={ci†,cj†}=0. These are mathematical sector relations; they do not select a physical species or imply a spin-statistics theorem.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: the Fock spaces, completed tensor powers, projections, coordinate basis and fixed enumeration in Symmetric and antisymmetric identical-particle Fock spaces.

[F1]

Symmetric and antisymmetric identical-particle Fock spaces, Definition: the product tensors form a complete orthonormal family in each tensor power, the sector projections are orthogonal, and the Fock space is the square-summable direct sum of their ranges.

[F2]

Permutation sector projections on the n-fold tensor power, Statement (b)–(d): symmetrizing and antisymmetrizing by the finite permutation averages gives the indicated orthogonal sectors, and an antisymmetrized elementary tensor with a repeated factor is zero.

[F3]

Adjoint of a densely defined operator: a vector lies in the adjoint domain exactly when the adjoint pairing on the dense domain is bounded; testing on basis vectors determines its adjoint coordinates. Densely defined, closed and closable operators, and cores: a closed operator is determined by its graph, and graph-norm truncations give a core.

Proof

1.1givenF1algebra

Let n=∣m∣. In the bosonic permutation average P+(n)xm, each distinct product word with occupation profile m occurs ∏jmj! times out of n! permutations. Therefore P+(n)xm=∏jmj!n!∑w∈W(m)w,∣W(m)∣=n!∏jmj!. The product words are orthonormal by [F1], so the squared norm of this average is ∏jmj!/n!; the prefactor in ∣m⟩B makes its norm one. Distinct occupation profiles have disjoint word supports, hence their vectors are orthogonal.

1.2givenF1F2algebra

If a fermionic list repeats a mode, [F2] makes its antisymmetrization zero; ΩF excludes these profiles. For distinct occupied modes, the n! permuted product words are distinct orthonormal vectors with coefficients ±1/n!, so ∥P−(n)xm∥2=1/n!. The prefactor n! normalizes the vector. Distinct occupied subsets have disjoint product-word support and are orthogonal.

1.3givenalgebra

The fixed enumeration identifies a finite-support configuration with a finite sequence of natural indices and finitely many nonnegative integer labels (or bits); the union over all finite sequence lengths is countable. Thus ΩB and ΩF are countable and their ℓ2 coordinate descriptions are well defined.

1.4givenF3F4algebra

On the bosonic basis, shifting the coordinate index gives ∥ajc∥2=∑mmj∣cm∣2 and ∥aj†c∥2=∑m(mj+1)∣cm∣2. Hence the stated weighted domains are exactly the domains on which the shifted coefficient sequences lie in ℓ2. If c(r)→c and either shifted sequence converges in ℓ2, coordinate convergence shows the limiting output has the same weighted-shift coordinates; its square summability puts c in the displayed domain. Thus both maximal shifts are closed. Testing the adjoint identity against each basis vector forces the reverse weighted shift [F3], while Cauchy--Schwarz gives the converse pairing bound [F4]. Truncating to finite initial sets of configurations makes the weighted tails tend to zero in graph norm, so Dfin is a core for both shifts under the graph definition in [F3].

2.1step 1.1step 1.2F1algebra

Product words span a dense subspace of each tensor power by [F1]. Applying the bounded projections P±(n) to that dense span gives a dense subspace of each projected sector. Every projected product word is either zero or a scalar multiple of the corresponding occupation vector from steps 1.1–1.2. Thus the occupation vectors are complete in each sector and, after taking the direct sum over n, form orthonormal bases of the Fock spaces.

2.2step 1.4algebra

For i=j, direct action on ∣m⟩B gives ajaj†∣m⟩B=(mj+1)∣m⟩B and aj†aj∣m⟩B=mj∣m⟩B. For i≠j, both orders of distinct coordinate shifts give the same coefficient and same occupation vector, so the shifts commute; the same direct coordinate calculation applies to two annihilators and two creators. This proves the CCR on Dfin, without asserting that unbounded commutators are defined on all Fock space.

3.1givenstep 1.2algebra∎

Each fermionic shift maps a subset of an orthonormal basis into another orthonormal subset with coefficients of modulus at most one, so it is a contraction on the finite span and extends boundedly. For distinct i,j, the two orders in any CAR anticommutator are either both zero or have equal magnitudes and opposite signs: toggling the earlier mode changes by one the number of occupied modes preceding the later index. For i=j, if mj=0 then cjcj†∣m⟩F=∣m⟩F and cj†cj∣m⟩F=0; if mj=1 the roles reverse. The other same-mode anticommutators vanish. Thus all CAR identities hold on the basis span and extend by boundedness to the whole Fock space.

Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace

Statement

Assume The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω). Let I be finite or countably infinite with a specified enumeration, let m∈Ω± be the occupation configurations of Occupation bases and actual CCR/CAR domains, and let ϵj∈R be finite mode energies. For each finite-support configuration put

E(m):=∑jϵjmj,N(m):=∣m∣=∑jmj.

These are finite sums. On ℓ2(Ω±), define the real diagonal multipliers

D(H)={c:∑mE(m)2∣cm∣2<∞},(Hc)m=E(m)cm, D(N)={c:∑m∣m∣2∣cm∣2<∞},(Nc)m=∣m∣cm,

and, for μ∈R,

D(Kμ)={c:∑m∣E(m)−μ∣m∣∣2∣cm∣2<∞},(Kμc)m=(E(m)−μ∣m∣)cm.

Each is self-adjoint on its displayed domain. No equality between D(Kμ) and D(H)∩D(N) is asserted.

For β>0, set qj=e−β(ϵj−μ). In the bosonic case assume

0<qj<1,q∗:=sup⁡jqj<1,∑jqj<∞;

Here q∗=0 by convention when I is empty; for nonempty I the displayed supremum is unchanged. In the fermionic case assume qj>0, ∑jqj<∞, and only finitely many gaps ϵj−μ are negative. Define the positive diagonal multiplier Gβ,μ by Gβ,μ∣m⟩=e−β(E(m)−μ∣m∣)∣m⟩. Then Gβ,μ is trace class, with

ΞB=Tr⁡Gβ,μ=∏j(1−qj)−1<∞,ΞF=Tr⁡Gβ,μ=∏j(1+qj)<∞.

Thus ρβ,μ=Ξ−1Gβ,μ is a positive trace-class operator of trace one. Its finite-mode marginals are independent: bosonic occupation nj∈N0 has law (1−qj)qjnj, and fermionic occupation nj∈{0,1} has probabilities (1+qj)−1 and qj(1+qj)−1. In particular

EBNj=qj1−qj,Var⁡B(Nj)=qj(1−qj)2,EFNj=qj1+qj,Var⁡F(Nj)=qj(1+qj)2.

The total number has finite mean and variance under the stated mode conditions. The trace hypotheses alone do not imply finite energy moments or differentiability in β,μ.

For an additional compact-parameter envelope, the corresponding response identities hold. For fixed μ, let J⊂(0,∞) be a nonempty open interval. If for every compact B⊂J a summable (am) satisfies (1+∣E(m)−μ∣m∣∣2)e−β(E(m)−μ∣m∣)≤am for all m and β∈B, then throughout J, −∂βlog⁡Ξ=E(Kμ) and ∂β2log⁡Ξ=Var⁡(Kμ). If (β,μ) varies over an open set and a summable compact-parameter envelope dominates e−β(E(m)−μ∣m∣)(1+∣E(m)∣2+∣m∣2), then at fixed β, ∂μE(N)=βVar⁡(N) and ∂μE(E)=βCov⁡(E,N). These stronger moment envelopes are additional hypotheses, not consequences of trace-class normalization.

For a finite mode set J, the canonical fixed-number coefficients are defined by

∏j∈J(1−ze−βϵj)−1=∑N≥0ZB,N(J)zN,∏j∈J(1+ze−βϵj)=∑N=0∣J∣ZF,N(J)zN.

Each coefficient is the sum of the Boltzmann weights over the corresponding number sector; for a countable mode set it is the increasing limit over finite mode sets and is finite under the stated grand-trace hypotheses. A fixed-number law is the grand law conditioned on total number, so its occupations are generally coupled. The oscillator specialization uses the actual one-particle Hermite basis and diagonal domain of Oscillator scaling and exact realization, not a formal differential eigenfunction list.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Countable mode configurations and the bosonic/fermionic occupation bases.

[F1]

Occupation bases and actual CCR/CAR domains, Statement: ΩB and ΩF are countable configuration sets, their occupation vectors are complete orthonormal bases, and the CCR/CAR shifts have the displayed domains and laws.

[F2]

Countable canonical model, Definition: a countable canonical model has partition sum Z(β)=∑igie−βEi, normalized weights when 0<Z<∞, and expectations on their absolute-moment domains.

[F3]

Summable canonical differentiation, Statement: on an open parameter interval, the compact local envelope gi(1+∣Ei∣2)e−βEi≤ai∈ℓ1 makes Z positive finite and C2, with −∂βlog⁡Z=E(E) and ∂β2log⁡Z=Var⁡(E).

[F4]

Single-mode Bose and Fermi occupation fluctuations, Statement: for q∈(0,1), the geometric law (1−q)qn has mean q/(1−q) and variance q/(1−q)2; the two-state law with weights (1,q)/(1+q) has mean q/(1+q) and variance q/(1+q)2.

[F5]

Grand-response derivatives are covariances, Statement: for a measurable exponential family with a compact-parameter integrable envelope dominating the exponential times 1+∑a∣Xa∣2, derivatives of log⁡Z and expectations are means and covariances.

[F6]

Diagonal adjoint and graph-core lemma and Oscillator scaling and exact realization, Statements: the oscillator eigenbasis is complete and its self-adjoint diagonal operator has domain ∑nℏ2ω2(n+12)2∣cn∣2<∞, with eigenvalues ℏω(n+12).

[F7]

Trace class operator, Absolute value and singular values of a compact operator, Positive square root of a compact positive operator, and Trace of a positive operator is the sum of its eigenvalues: for a positive compact diagonal operator, its absolute value is itself, its singular values are its nonnegative diagonal eigenvalues with multiplicity, summability makes it trace class, and its trace is their sum.

[F8]

Adjoint of a densely defined operator: the adjoint domain is determined by boundedness of the adjoint pairing on the dense operator domain; Cauchy–Schwarz: ∣⟨x,y⟩∣≤∥x∥ ∥y∥, with equality exactly for dependent pairs bounds the coordinate pairing.

[A1]

The mode energies and β,μ are finite real parameters; all q-summability and compact-envelope assumptions in the Statement are imposed exactly where used.

Proof

1.1givenF1A1

The configuration set Ω± is countable by [F1]. Every m has finite support, so the sums defining E(m) and ∣m∣ are finite real sums. The finite-support vectors form a dense subspace of ℓ2(Ω±).

1.2givenA1algebra

If I is empty, its only occupation configuration is the vacuum: E=N=Kμ=0, G=I on C, Ξ=1 and ρ=1. The empty products are one, the total number has mean and variance zero, and every stated parameter derivative is zero; the convention q∗=0 makes the bosonic hypotheses valid. For a finite mode set J, summing the positive diagonal weights independently over each bosonic coordinate gives ∏j∈J∑n≥0qjn=∏j∈J(1−qj)−1. In the fermionic case each coordinate has only two values and contributes 1+qj. This proves the finite-mode trace products.

1.3F2F3A1

For a fixed μ, the countable configuration model has weights e−β(E(m)−μ∣m∣) and degeneracies one. On the nonempty open interval J, the compact β-envelope in the Statement ensures that [F2]–[F3] apply to this exact countable index set and energy Kμ(m), giving the displayed beta-derivative identities and finite moments. The envelope is stronger than trace finiteness and is stated separately.

1.4F5A1algebra

For joint (β,μ) response, put X1(m)=E(m), X2(m)=∣m∣, and natural parameter θ=(−β,βμ). The map (β,μ)↦θ is a smooth bijection onto its open image for β>0, with nonzero Jacobian. The stated joint envelope is exactly the required second-moment envelope for [F5]; differentiating at fixed β gives ∂μE(N)=βVar⁡(N) and ∂μE(E)=βCov⁡(E,N).

2.1step 1.1A1F8algebra

Let Dλ multiply the coordinate cm by a real number λm, on the domain ∑mλm2∣cm∣2<∞. Testing the adjoint identity on each coordinate vector forces the adjoint coordinates to be λmcm, so D(Dλ∗) is exactly this weighted ℓ2 domain by [F8]. Conversely, on that domain Cauchy–Schwarz makes the coordinate pairing bounded and identifies the adjoint action with the same multiplier. Apply this argument to λm=E(m), ∣m∣, and E(m)−μ∣m∣; all three displayed operators are self-adjoint.

2.2step 1.2A1algebra

Enumerate a countable mode set by increasing finite initial sets JM. Their finite-support configuration sets increase to Ω±, so the full nonnegative trace sum is the increasing limit of the finite-mode sums. For bosons, −log⁡(1−qj)=∫0qj(1−u)−1du≤qj/(1−q∗), hence ∑j−log⁡(1−qj)<∞. For fermions, log⁡(1+qj)≤qj, hence ∑jlog⁡(1+qj)<∞. The products therefore have finite positive limits and equal the full diagonal trace sums; the negative fermionic gaps are finite by hypothesis, and each has finite weight.

3.1step 2.2F1F7A1algebra

If Ω± is infinite, enumerate it as m1,m2,… and let GM retain the first M diagonal entries of Gβ,μ; in the finite case take the full finite sum. Each GM has finite rank and hence is compact. Since the omitted entries are nonnegative and summable, their supremum is bounded by their sum, so ∥Gβ,μ−GM∥≤∑r>Me−β(E(mr)−μ∣mr∣)→0. The norm-limit theorem therefore makes Gβ,μ compact. It is positive diagonal and satisfies Gβ,μ∗Gβ,μ=Gβ,μ2; uniqueness of its compact positive square root gives ∣Gβ,μ∣=Gβ,μ. Its singular values are the nonnegative diagonal entries with multiplicity, whose sum is Ξ<∞. Thus [F7] and the trace-class definition make it trace class and give Tr⁡Gβ,μ=Ξ. Dividing by Ξ>0 gives a positive trace-class operator of trace one.

3.2step 1.2step 2.2A1algebra

Fix one mode j, and take increasing finite mode sets JM containing it. For bosons, the trace weight of configurations in JM with occupation n at j is qjn∏i∈JM∖{j}(1−qi)−1; division by the total finite trace gives (1−qj)qjn. For fermions the same calculation gives probability qjn/(1+qj), for n∈{0,1}. Taking increasing limits of the nonnegative configuration sums preserves these factorizations, because every finite-support configuration is eventually included and the finite products converge by step 2.2. Factoring over any fixed finite list of modes gives the product joint law, hence independence of finite collections in this diagonal grand state.

3.3step 2.2A1algebra

For finite J, multiplying the geometric series in each bosonic coordinate gives the coefficient identity for ZB,N(J); multiplying the two-term polynomials in each fermionic coordinate gives the identity for ZF,N(J). Each coefficient sums exactly the finite canonical Boltzmann weights with total occupation N. For countable I, increasing finite mode sets increase each coefficient to its sum over all finite-support configurations; for any admissible fugacity z=eβμ>0, nonnegativity gives zNZ±,N≤Ξ, hence Z±,N≤z−NΞ<∞, and a canonical density exists exactly when the coefficient is positive. Conditioning the grand law on ∣m∣=N multiplies by the indicator of that constraint and generally couples the mode occupations.

4.1F4step 3.2A1algebra

If 0<qj<1, [F4] gives the stated Bose and Fermi means and variances. For a fermionic mode with qj≥1, direct summation of its two probabilities gives ENj=qj/(1+qj) and Var⁡(Nj)=qj/(1+qj)2; no geometric-series claim is used there. The bosonic bounds ENj≤qj/(1−q∗) and Var⁡(Nj)≤qj/(1−q∗)2, and the fermionic bounds ENj≤qj and Var⁡(Nj)≤qj, are summable. For finite initial mode sets, independence from step 3.2 gives ENM=∑j∈JMENj and ENM2=∑j∈JMVar⁡(Nj)+(∑j∈JMENj)2. Each configuration has finite support, so NM↑N; passing to the increasing limits of the defining nonnegative countable sums yields finite EN and EN2, with Var⁡(N)=∑jVar⁡(Nj)<∞.

5.1F6A1∎

In the one-dimensional oscillator specialization, [F6] supplies the Hermite eigenbasis, energy list and exact diagonal domain; substitution of those eigenvalues into the Fock multiplier gives the stated occupation construction. This uses the actual self-adjoint oscillator carrier rather than a formal differential eigenfunction list.

Remarks

The current published mathematical oscillator items match the former research alias research-NRQM-M12-diagonal-oscillator-contract on the needed diagonal domain, Hermite completeness and positive-frequency spectrum. The current published thm-tdmath-summable-canonical-differentiation and lem-tdmath-bose-fermi-mode-fluctuations match the former M16 and single-mode M36 interfaces; the Fermi formula for qj≥1 is verified directly above because the M36 source statement assumes q∈(0,1). No alias is treated as a current carrier when its exact item is absent.

Lattice Gaussian Riemann limits and the singular Bose endpoint

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice ACω (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)). Let d≥1 be an integer, α,β>0, and h>0. Define FB(p)=(eβα∣p∣2−1)−1 for p≠0 and FF(p)=(eβ(α∣p∣2−μ)+1)−1 for finite μ∈R. For each μ<0, both FB(⋅;μ)=(eβ(α∣p∣2−μ)−1)−1 and FF are continuous, and for every fixed integer s≥0 their polynomially weighted lattice sums converge with hd∑k∈Zd∣hk∣sF(hk)⟶∫Rd∣p∣sF(p) dp(h↓0). The convergence is uniform when (β,μ) ranges over a compact subset of {β>0,μ<0} for bosons or {β>0,μ∈R} for fermions. At the Bose endpoint μ=0, define FB(p;0)=(eβα∣p∣2−1)−1 for p≠0. For every fixed β,α>0 and d≥1, monotone convergence gives ∫FB(p;μ) dp↑∫FB(p;0) dp as μ↑0, where the extended endpoint value is ∫RdFB(p;0) dp=(π/(βα))d/2∑ℓ=1∞ℓ−d/2∈(0,+∞]. It is finite exactly when d>2. In that case the missing-origin lattice sums satisfy hd∑k∈Zd∖{0}FB(hk;0)⟶∫RdFB(p;0) dp(h↓0). No value is assigned to FB(0;0).

Gaussian, gamma and beta product integrals, Statement and proof: the Gaussian integral is ∫Re−ax2dx=π/a for a>0, and its finite products give the d dimensional Gaussian value. Its full parameter-derivative clause is separately proved by differentiating the independently evaluated moments; this theorem uses only its Gaussian evaluation clause, not parameter differentiation.

Tonelli's theorem for nonnegative measurable functions on a sigma-finite product: nonnegative measurable functions may be integrated in either order, including countable sums against Lebesgue measure.

[F4]

Monotone convergence for the integral: increasing nonnegative measurable functions have integrals converging to the integral of their pointwise limit.

[A1]

h is the mesh size; α and β are fixed positive real parameters. In later physical uses α has units energy·length2, p has units length−1, and β has units energy−1.

Proof

1.1givenF1F3algebra

For μ<0, the Bose denominator is bounded below by eβ(−μ)−1>0 on compact sets; for finite μ, the Fermi denominator is at least 1. At large ∣p∣, each occupation is bounded by Ce−c∣p∣2 for positive constants C,c depending on a compact parameter neighborhood. A polynomial factor ∣p∣s is absorbed by a slower Gaussian because rse−cr2/2 is bounded on [0,∞). Thus the continuum integrands and their polynomially weighted tails are integrable by comparison with products of one dimensional Gaussians and Tonelli [F3,F1]. For each fixed h>0, the max-norm shell ∣k∣∞=n has at most Cdnd−1 points, and its summand is bounded by a fixed polynomial in n times e−ch2n2; the ratio of successive polynomial-Gaussian terms is eventually below a constant less than one, proving every lattice sum is finite.

1.2givenF2F5algebra

At μ=0 and p≠0, ex−1≥x gives FB(p)≤(βα∣p∣2)−1. If ∣k∣∞=n, the number of integer lattice points in that shell is (2n+1)d−(2n−1)d≤Cdnd−1, while ∣k∣≥n. Hence for 0<h≤δ, hd∑0<∣hk∣≤δFB(hk)≤Chd−2∑n≤δ/hnd−3≤C′δd−2 when d>2; the last estimate follows by comparison on each unit interval with the integral of xd−3 (and for d=3 the sum is bounded by a constant times δ/h). The continuum small-ball integral has the same bound by decomposing into dyadic annuli, each with volume at most a constant times its radius to power d.

On a fixed compact cube, uniform continuity of ∣p∣sF(p) implies that replacing its value on each mesh cube by its value at the lattice corner changes the integral by at most the cube volume times the common modulus of continuity; summing finitely many cubes makes this error tend to zero. The measure of each mesh cube is hd by [F5]. This proves convergence on compact cubes.

To control tails uniformly for 0<h≤1, let Qk,h=hk+[−h/2,h/2]d. For p∈Qk,h, ∣hk∣2≥∣p∣2/2−dh2/4. The Gaussian bound from step 1.1 therefore bounds each weighted lattice summand times hd by a fixed constant times the integral of a slower Gaussian over Qk,h; the polynomial weight is absorbed by reducing its exponent once more. Cubes whose centers satisfy ∣hk∣>R lie outside the ball of radius R−d/2. The integral of the slower Gaussian on that exterior tends to zero as R→∞, by [F1,F3]. Compact convergence from step 2.1 and this uniform tail bound prove the stated full-space limit and finiteness of every lattice sum.

4.1step 2.1step 3.1step 1.2algebra

Outside any fixed ball around zero, FB is continuous and has Gaussian tails, so the compact-annulus and tail argument in steps 2.1 and 3.1 applies. Split both the sum and integral into 0<∣p∣≤δ, δ<∣p∣≤R, and ∣p∣>R. First take h↓0 on the annulus, then R→∞ using Gaussian tails, and finally δ↓0 using step 1.2. This proves convergence of the missing-origin Bose sums without assigning an origin value.

5.1F1F3F4algebra∎

For p≠0, the positive geometric series gives FB(p;0)=∑ℓ≥1e−ℓβα∣p∣2. Its partial sums increase pointwise, so [F4] and Tonelli [F3] give the equality as extended nonnegative integrals ∫FB=∑ℓ≥1∫e−ℓβα∣p∣2dp. The product Gaussian integral [F1] evaluates each term as (π/(ℓβα))d/2. The resulting positive series converges exactly when d/2>1, by comparison of ∑ℓ−d/2 with ∫1∞x−d/2dx, and diverges otherwise. For μ<0, FB(p;μ) increases pointwise to FB(p;0) as μ↑0, so [F4] also gives convergence of the corresponding integrals to this endpoint value. This proves the extended endpoint formula, its divergence for d≤2, and the integral limit used by the Bose condensation theorem.

Remarks

The in-run supplier Gaussian, gamma and beta product integrals is a batch-34 draft. Its current complete argument proves the Gaussian values used here and its full moment-derivative clause; the latter follows from evaluated moments and the Gamma recurrence, without an improper-integral differentiation interchange or a research M17 premise. This theorem uses the Gaussian evaluation and finite-product integrability only. The singular-origin and uniform-tail arguments are supplied locally above. Ordinary native review remains required; this supplier compatibility check grants no readiness.

Quantum statistics and model equilibrium preparation

Physical scope

Adoption of NRQM state and Born-measurement terminology on declared QSM Hilbert spaces, a specified self-adjoint Hamiltonian with domain, a chosen symmetric boson or antisymmetric fermion sector, and a canonical or grand-canonical Gibbs preparation only when its trace is positive and finite. General self-adjoint spectral measurements inherit the Axiom of Choice hypothesis of their NRQM supplier; countable diagonal Fock traces inherit AC_omega. P1's fixed-particle-number physical scope is not extended to variable-number grand models. This formulation asserts no spin-statistics theorem, thermalization dynamics, universal equilibrium, empirical observation, or applicability to a particular species.

Postulate

For a declared QSM model, let I be a specified finite or countably infinite mode set with a fixed enumeration and let h=ℓ2(I). The model assigns a nonzero separable complex Hilbert space H and declares whether it is a fixed-particle-number sector or the Fock space F±(h) of Symmetric and antisymmetric identical-particle Fock spaces. By that definition, F±(h) is the Hilbert direct sum of the symmetric or antisymmetric n-particle tensor sectors for n≥0, including the vacuum sector C. The assignment is a physical model assumption. The symmetric or antisymmetric sector is selected independently for bosons or fermions; this selection is not derived from the Fock construction or from a nonrelativistic spin-statistics theorem.

The words pure preparation and state have the exact meanings in clauses (i)–(iii) of State and composition postulate P1: Hilbert spaces, preparations and composite systems: a pure preparation is a unit ray in H, and a general state is a self-adjoint positive trace-class operator ρ with tr⁡ρ=1. These mathematical state definitions are used for the QSM Hilbert spaces declared above; the reference does not extend that NRQM postulate's fixed-particle-number physical scope to a variable-number grand-canonical system. The countable-choice hypothesis is The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω).

A sharp measurement is specified by a densely defined self-adjoint operator A:D(A)⊆H→H, its declared physical unit, and its spectral projection-valued measure EA on the Borel sets of R, as in clauses (i)–(iii) of Observable and probability postulate P2: self-adjoint observables, spectral probability and finite unsharp outcomes. Here a projection-valued measure is a map from Borel sets to orthogonal projections with EA(∅)=0, EA(R)=I, EA(B∩C)=EA(B)EA(C), and strong countable additivity. The adopted Born law is μρA(B):=tr⁡(ρEA(B)) for Borel B⊆R; clauses (a)–(b) of Density operators and scalar spectral probability give a probability measure under ACω. For a finite unsharp measurement, a specified finite family of bounded effects 0≤Fa≤I with ∑aFa=I has outcome probabilities tr⁡(ρFa), as in clause (iv) of Observable and probability postulate P2: self-adjoint observables, spectral probability and finite unsharp outcomes. The arbitrary self-adjoint spectral construction in that postulate also assumes the Axiom of Choice; any use inherits that exact mathematical premise.

An Axiom of Choice hypothesis The Axiom of Choice accompanies the general self-adjoint spectral construction in P2. A model Hamiltonian is a densely defined self-adjoint operator H:D(H)⊆H→H representing energy, with its domain and energy unit declared. For a canonical preparation, write HN for the Hamiltonian on the declared fixed-number sector and adopt ρ=Z−1e−βHN only when the spectral-calculus exponential has 0<Z=tr⁡(e−βHN)<∞. For a grand-canonical preparation on the declared Fock space, let ∣n∣:=∑jnj for a finite-support occupation configuration n of Occupation bases and actual CCR/CAR domains and define the particle-number operator by N∣n⟩=∣n∣∣n⟩ on D(N)={c∈ℓ2(Ω±):∑n∣n∣2∣cn∣2<∞}, as in Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace. Require Kμ to be a specified self-adjoint realization of H−μN on a stated domain; self-adjointness of H and N separately does not by itself specify a self-adjoint domain for their difference. For T>0 in K, kB>0 in J K−1, β=(kBT)−1 in J−1, and chemical potential μ in J, adopt ρ=Ξ−1e−βKμ only when 0<Ξ=tr⁡(e−βKμ)<∞.

For the additive diagonal Fock model, the trace and occupation statements of Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace hold only under that lemma's mode-summability hypotheses and ACω. Under those hypotheses its finite collections of grand-canonical mode occupations are independent. This independence is not asserted for interacting Hamiltonians; conditioning a product grand law on a fixed total number generally couples the modes.

If the spectral law μρH has finite first absolute moment, define the model mean energy by U(ρ;H):=∫Rλ dμρH(λ). If the nonzero eigenvalues rj of ρ, repeated with multiplicity, satisfy ∑j−rjlog⁡rj<∞, define its von Neumann entropy by S(ρ):=−kB∑jrjlog⁡rj, with 0log⁡0:=0; where finite, this is −kBtr⁡(ρlog⁡ρ). This postulate does not define Helmholtz free energy, grand potential, or other thermodynamic potentials; model-specific items define them with their own hypotheses. Identifying these quantities with measured macroscopic thermodynamic variables requires a separate physical bridge. No thermalization mechanism, empirical value, or law for a particular material is postulated here.

Controlled dilute Bose/Fermi occupation limit

Physical scope

Conditional mode-by-mode approximation for a trace-class ideal Bose or Fermi grand state with dimensionless fugacities 0<q_j≤r<1 and summable squared fugacities. The occupation and log-partition errors are bounded explicitly. This is a controlled dilute or low-fugacity limit, not a high-temperature criterion, universality statement, interacting-gas result, or empirical observation.

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice ACω (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)), the preparation postulate Quantum statistics and model equilibrium preparation, and the diagonal grand-trace hypotheses of Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace. Let the mode set be finite or countable, with 0<qj≤r<1 and ∑jqj2<∞. Write nˉjB=qj/(1−qj) and nˉjF=qj/(1+qj). Then ∣nˉjB−qj∣≤qj21−r,∣nˉjF−qj∣≤qj2. The total mean occupations satisfy ∣∑jnˉjB−∑jqj∣≤11−r∑jqj2,∣∑jnˉjF−∑jqj∣≤∑jqj2. The grand log partition factors, with ΞB,ΞF as defined in Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace, obey 0≤−log⁡(1−qj)−qj≤qj22(1−r),0≤qj−log⁡(1+qj)≤qj22. Consequently, ∣log⁡ΞB−∑jqj∣≤12(1−r)∑jqj2,∣log⁡ΞF−∑jqj∣≤12∑jqj2. Thus the displayed linear fugacity terms approximate both total mean occupation and log partition with a controlled aggregate error under the stated squared-summability hypothesis.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ACω; adopted preparation and trace-normalized diagonal occupation law; dimensionless qj∈(0,r].

[A1]

Quantum statistics and model equilibrium preparation: the species sector and normalized grand preparation are adopted assumptions, not mathematical consequences.

[F1]

Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace, Statement: under its stated summability conditions, bosonic and fermionic marginals have means q/(1−q) and q/(1+q), and log⁡Ξ is the sum of −log⁡(1−q) or log⁡(1+q).

Proof

1.1givenF1algebra

For bosons, direct subtraction gives nˉB−q=q2/(1−q); because q≤r, this is nonnegative and at most q2/(1−r). For fermions, q−nˉF=q2/(1+q), which lies between zero and q2.

1.2givenalgebra

The identity −log⁡(1−q)−q=∫0qx/(1−x) dx follows by integrating the derivative of −log⁡(1−x)−x from zero. Since 1/(1−x)≤1/(1−r) on [0,q], the integral is between zero and q2/[2(1−r)]. Also q−log⁡(1+q)=∫0qx/(1+x) dx, whose integrand lies between zero and x, giving the Fermi bound q2/2.

2.1step 1.1A1algebra

Summing the nonnegative mode errors over any finite subset preserves these bounds. Taking the increasing limit over finite subsets gives the same inequalities for the total error because ∑jqj2<∞.

3.1step 1.2F1algebra∎

By [F1], the log partition function is the sum of the corresponding mode log factors. Sum the nonnegative factor remainders from step 1.2 over finite subsets and pass to the countable limit; squared summability makes each aggregate error finite and proves the claimed controlled first-order approximation.

Exact quantum oscillator and spin ensembles

Physical scope

Exact canonical calculations for the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator with its proved Hermite spectral realization and for a declared independent two-level spin Hamiltonian. The low- and high-temperature limits retain the model's zero-point and ground-degeneracy qualifications. No generic third-law claim, species magnetic moment, material prediction, or measurement is asserted.

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice ACω (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)) and the preparation postulate Quantum statistics and model equilibrium preparation. Let ω>0 in s−1, m>0 in kg, ℏ>0 in J s, kB>0 in J K−1, and T>0 in K; set ϵ=ℏω in joules and β=(kBT)−1 in J−1. Take the self-adjoint one-dimensional realization Hosc of −ℏ2(2m)−1d2/dx2+mω2x2/2 on L2(R,dx) with Hermite eigenvectors ϕn, eigenvalues ϵ(n+1/2), and domain D(Hosc)={∑ncnϕn:∑nϵ2(n+1/2)2∣cn∣2<∞}, as proved in Oscillator scaling and exact realization. Declare this oscillator to be a fixed-number QSM model with particle number N=1 and mode set I=N0 in its usual order. The unitary Uosc:ℓ2(N0)→L2(R,dx), Uosc(c)=∑n≥0cnϕn, identifies its one-particle sector with this realization; the symmetric and antisymmetric one-particle sectors coincide. Adopt the canonical preparation ρosc=Z−1e−βHosc when its trace Z is positive and finite. Define U=tr⁡(ρoscHosc) when its absolute energy moment is finite, CV=∂U/∂T at fixed m,ω,ℏ, and S=−kBtr⁡(ρosclog⁡ρosc) when its eigenvalue entropy sum is finite. Then Z=e−βϵ/2(1−e−βϵ)−1,U=ϵ(12+nˉ),nˉ=(eβϵ−1)−1,CV=kB(βϵ)2eβϵ(eβϵ−1)2. Its entropy is S=kB[(1+nˉ)log⁡(1+nˉ)−nˉlog⁡nˉ]; as T↓0, U→ϵ/2, S,CV→0. As βϵ↓0, U=β−1+O(βϵ2).

For a separate two-level spin model, let Hs=C2 with its standard orthonormal basis, define σz=(100−1) on its full domain D(σz)=C2, and set Hs=−hσz for h∈R in joules. Declare this separate QSM model to be its fixed N=1 sector with two ordered modes Is={1,2}, identified with ℓ2(Is)=C2 by the coordinate basis, and adopt ρs=Zs−1e−βHs when 0<Zs=tr⁡(e−βHs)<∞. Define Us,CV,s,Ss by the same mean, fixed-h temperature derivative, and entropy formulas. Then Zs=2cosh⁡(βh), Us=−htanh⁡(βh), CV,s=kB(βh)2sech⁡2(βh), and Ss→0 as T↓0 when h≠0, whereas Ss=kBlog⁡2 when h=0. These results make no generic third-law claim.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ACω, β>0 in J−1, ϵ=ℏω>0 in J, and the adopted state assignment.

[A1]

Quantum statistics and model equilibrium preparation: on each explicitly declared fixed-number QSM sector above, adopt canonical Gibbs preparation when the corresponding trace is positive and finite. This is a physical assumption, not a consequence of the energy spectrum.

[F1]

Oscillator scaling and exact realization, Statement: the oscillator has the complete Hermite eigenbasis, eigenvalues ϵ(n+1/2), and exact squared-weight self-adjoint domain.

[F2]

Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace, Statement: a positive summable diagonal Boltzmann trace normalizes the occupation weights; its moment identities apply when the relevant sums converge.

Proof

1.1givenF1A1algebra

The oscillator eigenvalues from [F1] give levels ϵ(n+1/2) for the declared Hamiltonian. Since x=e−βϵ∈(0,1), summing the geometric series yields Z=∑n≥0e−βϵ(n+1/2)=e−βϵ/2/(1−x), finite and positive; the domain and spectral realization are those of [F1], so this sum is the trace of the declared Gibbs multiplier.

2.1step 1.1F2algebra

The normalized probabilities are (1−x)xn. Differentiating the convergent geometric series, or multiplying its absolutely convergent power series by 1−x, gives En=x/(1−x) and Var⁡n=x/(1−x)2. Therefore U=ϵ(1/2+nˉ) and differentiating with respect to T using dβ/dT=−1/(kBT2) gives the displayed CV.

3.1step 2.1algebra

Since −log⁡pn=−log⁡(1−x)−nlog⁡x, S=−kB∑npnlog⁡pn=kB[−log⁡(1−x)−nˉlog⁡x]. Substituting x=nˉ/(1+nˉ) gives the stated entropy. As βϵ→∞, x→0, so U→ϵ/2, CV→0, and both −log⁡(1−x) and nˉ∣log⁡x∣ tend to zero; hence S→0.

3.2step 2.1algebra

Set y=βϵ. Taylor's formula for ey at zero gives ey−1=y+y2/2+O(y3), so nˉ=1/y−1/2+O(y) as y↓0. Multiplying by ϵ in U=ϵ(1/2+nˉ) cancels the constant halves and yields U=β−1+O(βϵ2).

4.1givenA1algebra∎

The spin eigenvalues are −h and h, so its normalized Gibbs probabilities are eβh/(2cosh⁡βh) and e−βh/(2cosh⁡βh). Their sum gives Zs; their energy mean is −htanh⁡(βh) and variance h2sech⁡2(βh). Multiplying the variance by 1/(kBT2)=kBβ2 gives the displayed heat capacity. If h≠0, one probability tends one and the other zero, so the two-state entropy tends zero; if h=0, both probabilities equal 1/2 at all temperatures and Ss=kBlog⁡2.

Finite spectral periodic Bose/Fermi gas

Physical scope

A finite-volume ideal gas defined spectrally on the integer momentum labels of a periodic box, with dispersion alpha|2pi k/L|^2 and a finite internal degeneracy g. It proves finite grand trace, exact mode means and continuum density/energy limits for fixed mu<0 in the Bose case or finite mu in the Fermi case. It does not identify this spectral definition with a differential operator domain, claim a finite-volume phase transition, or establish an empirical gas model.

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice ACω (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)) and adopt the model preparation of Quantum statistics and model equilibrium preparation. Let d≥1, L>0 in m, m>0 in kg, ℏ>0 in J s, kB>0 in J K−1, and T>0 in K. Put V=Ld, α=ℏ2/(2m), β=(kBT)−1, and let g∈N count distinct internal modes. Put Λ=Zd×{1,…,g}, enumerated by increasing ∥k∥∞:=max⁡1≤j≤d∣kj∣, then lexicographically in k and increasingly in s. Define the one-particle Hilbert space h=ℓ2(Λ) with coordinate basis ek,s. Its spectral energy multiplier is h1ek,s=ϵkek,s for ϵk=α∣2πk/L∣2, on the maximal domain D(h1)={c∈ℓ2(Λ):∑k,sϵk2∣ck,s∣2<∞}; the real diagonal multiplier is self-adjoint on this domain by the coordinate adjoint calculation in Step 2.1 of Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace.

Let ΩB be the finite-support maps n:Λ→N0, and let ΩF be the finite-support maps n:Λ→{0,1}, with occupation bases ∣n⟩ of the Bose or Fermi Fock space as in Occupation bases and actual CCR/CAR domains. Use Ω±=ΩB for bosons and Ω±=ΩF for fermions. Define the finite sums E(n):=∑(k,s)∈Λϵknk,s and ∣n∣:=∑(k,s)∈Λnk,s, and the mode occupation random variables Nk,s(n):=nk,s. The diagonal many-body Hamiltonian and total number operators act by H∣n⟩=E(n)∣n⟩ and N∣n⟩=∣n∣∣n⟩ on their maximal domains D(H)={c∈ℓ2(Ω±):∑n∈Ω±E(n)2∣cn∣2<∞},D(N)={c∈ℓ2(Ω±):∑n∈Ω±∣n∣2∣cn∣2<∞}, as self-adjoint operators on those domains by Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace.

For bosons take μ<0; for fermions take any finite μ∈R. In either case the grand trace Ξβ,μ,L:=∑n∈Ω±e−β(E(n)−μ∣n∣) is finite and positive, and its normalized occupation law is Pβ,μ,L(n):=Ξβ,μ,L−1e−β(E(n)−μ∣n∣). For a Pβ,μ,L-integrable real random variable X, write Eβ,μ,LX:=∑n∈Ω±Pβ,μ,L(n)X(n); if X has finite second moment, set Var⁡β,μ,L(X):=Eβ,μ,L[(X−Eβ,μ,LX)2]. In particular, Eβ,μ,LN=∑nPβ,μ,L(n)∣n∣ and Eβ,μ,LH=∑nPβ,μ,L(n)E(n). Under this additive diagonal Hamiltonian its mode occupations are independent, and nˉk,s:=Eβ,μ,LNk,s=1eβ(ϵk−μ)∓1,Var⁡β,μ,L(Nk,s)=nˉk,s(1±nˉk,s), with the upper sign choice in the denominator interpreted as − for bosons and + for fermions (equivalently the variance is nˉ(1+nˉ) for bosons and nˉ(1−nˉ) for fermions). For fixed β,μ in these regimes, as L→∞, Eβ,μ,LNV→g(2π)d∫Rddpeβ(α∣p∣2−μ)∓1,Eβ,μ,LHV→g(2π)d∫Rdα∣p∣2 dpeβ(α∣p∣2−μ)∓1, The continuum limits are conditional model deductions; they assert no thermalization or measured density.

Set h=2π/L and qk=eβμe−βαh2∣k∣2. The Gaussian lattice bound from [F2] gives ∑k,sqk<∞. For bosons, qk≤eβμ<1, so the uniform gap and summability hypotheses in [F1] hold. For fermions they hold with qk>0; only finitely many modes have ϵk<μ, since that inequality confines k to a bounded ball in the discrete lattice. The one-particle real diagonal multiplier has the stated weighted-square domain by the coefficient and adjoint test in [F1].

2.1step 1.1F1A1

Apply [F1] to these exact mode weights. Its finite positive product is the trace of e−β(H−μN); normalization yields the stated independent geometric or Bernoulli mode laws. The means and variances are those displayed in the Statement.

Ideal Fermi continuum and zero-temperature endpoint

Physical scope

The continuum grand-state density and energy and its fixed-density zero-temperature endpoint for a three-dimensional homogeneous ideal Fermi dispersion alpha|k|^2 with finite internal degeneracy g. The zero-temperature results are conditional ideal-gas predictions, with no Sommerfeld expansion, material-specific model, or reported observation.

Statement

Assume ACω (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)) and use the ideal spectral gas model of Finite spectral periodic Bose/Fermi gas, specializing to d=3, a positive integer internal degeneracy g≥1, and α=ℏ2/(2m)>0. For finite μ and β>0, the continuum number and energy densities are ρ(μ,β)=g(2π)3∫R3d3keβ(α∣k∣2−μ)+1,u(μ,β)=g(2π)3∫R3α∣k∣2d3keβ(α∣k∣2−μ)+1. For each ρ>0 and β>0 there is a unique μ(ρ,β) giving that density. As β→∞, μ(ρ,β)→EF and u→(3/5)ρEF, where kF=(6π2ρ/g)1/3,EF=αkF2. The ideal grand thermodynamic pressure p defined by p=gβ(2π)3∫R3log⁡(1+e−β(α∣k∣2−μ))d3k satisfies p=2u/3; hence its zero-temperature endpoint is 2ρEF/5.

Finite spectral periodic Bose/Fermi gas, Statement: the finite-volume model and its continuum density/energy integrals are the Riemann limits of the exact diagonal grand-state traces.

[F2]

Lattice Gaussian Riemann limits and the singular Bose endpoint, Statement: Gaussian tails with polynomial weights are integrable and uniform on compact finite-μ parameter sets, which supplies the integrable far-tail bounds below.

Proof

1.1givenA1F1F2algebra

Under the adopted preparation [A1] and the exact periodic continuum state [F1], for fixed β>0, the integrand is continuous in (k,μ) and strictly increases at every k with μ. The Gaussian tail bound from [F2] is uniform when μ ranges over a compact interval, so the integral is continuous in μ. As μ→−∞, the pointwise bound fF≤eβμe−βα∣k∣2 makes ρ→0. As μ→+∞, on the ball α∣k∣2≤μ the occupation is at least 1/2; the ball volume tends infinity, so ρ→∞. Strict monotonicity and the intermediate value theorem give a unique chemical potential for every positive ρ.

1.2givenF2algebra

Fix μ>0 and let kμ=μ/α. Off any annulus ∣∣k∣−kμ∣<δ, the Fermi occupation converges uniformly on bounded sets to the indicator of ∣k∣<kμ, since the exponent has a positive gap from zero there. The annulus volume tends zero with δ and the occupation is bounded by one, so its number and bounded-energy contributions vanish as δ↓0. Fix β0>0 in J−1. For ∣k∣ sufficiently large, α∣k∣2≥2μ and, for every β≥β0, fF≤e−βα∣k∣2/2≤e−β0α∣k∣2/2. The latter Gaussian and its energy-weighted counterpart α∣k∣2e−β0α∣k∣2/2 are integrable and bound the respective number and energy tails uniformly for β≥β0. Splitting into the bounded region and this tail proves convergence of both integrals to their filled-ball integrals.

2.1step 1.1step 1.2algebra

Spherical integration of the limiting indicator gives ρ0(μ)=g(2π)−3(4πkμ3/3)=gkμ3/(6π2) and u0(μ)=g(2π)−34παkμ5/5=gαkμ5/(10π2)=(3/5)ρ0(μ)μ. Solving ρ0(EF)=ρ gives the displayed kF,EF. For any 0<δ<EF, the zero-temperature limits at EF−δ and EF+δ strictly bracket ρ; for sufficiently large β the finite-temperature densities at these endpoints still bracket ρ, so step 1.1 traps μ(ρ,β) between them. The energy density is increasing in μ pointwise; therefore uβ(EF−δ)≤uβ(μ(ρ,β))≤uβ(EF+δ). Step 1.2 gives the limits of both bounds, and continuity of u0(μ) as δ↓0 proves u→(3/5)ρEF.

3.1step 2.1algebra∎

Let L(r)=log⁡(1+e−β(αr2−μ)). Then L′(r)=−2βαrfF(r). The boundary term r3L(r) vanishes at r=0 and at infinity, the latter because L(r)≤e−β(αr2−μ). Integration by parts on [0,R] followed by R→∞ gives ∫0∞r2L(r)dr=(2βα/3)∫0∞r4fF(r)dr. Substitution into the radial definitions of p and u gives p=2u/3. Passing to the limit in step 2.1 yields p→2ρEF/5. These are ideal-model predictions; no material pressure is inferred.

Dimension-restricted fixed-mean-density Bose condensation

It proves the critical density, dimension restriction, and grand-ensemble zero-mode nonconcentration. It does not assert canonical-ensemble equivalence, trapping, interactions, superfluidity, a finite-volume phase transition, or empirical condensation.

Let T=(kBβ)−1 in K, with kB>0 in J K−1. For each side length L>0 in m, put V:=Ld in md and choose the unique μL<0 solving L−d∑k∈Zd(eβ(α∣2πk/L∣2−μL)−1)−1=ρ. Let ΩB:={n:Zd→N0:{k:n(k)≠0} is finite} be the Bose occupation configuration set and define the grand probability law PL(n):=ΞL−1exp⁡(−β∑k∈Zd(α∣2πk/L∣2−μL)n(k)),ΞL:=∑n∈ΩBexp⁡(−β∑k∈Zd(α∣2πk/L∣2−μL)n(k)), which is finite and positive by Explicit diagonal Fock domains and occupation trace under ACω and its stated mode hypotheses. The zero-mode occupation random variable is N0(n):=n(0). For a PL-integrable real random variable X write ELX:=∑nPL(n)X(n); when its second moment is finite write Var⁡L(X):=EL[(X−ELX)2]. Say this model has mean zero-mode condensation when lim⁡L→∞ELN0/V>0; this limit, when it exists, is the mean condensate density. Define the mean condensed fraction by f0:=lim⁡L→∞ELN0/(ρV) when the limit exists. Define ζ(s):=∑ℓ=1∞ℓ−s for s>1 and (x)+:=max⁡(x,0). The critical density ρc=(2π)−d∫Rd(eβα∣p∣2−1)−1dp is an extended nonnegative number, with ρc=(4πβα)−d/2∑ℓ=1∞ℓ−d/2; this series diverges and ρc=+∞ for d≤2, while for d>2 it equals (4πβα)−d/2ζ(d/2). For d≤2, ELN0/V→0 for every finite ρ. For d>2, ELN0/V→(ρ−ρc)+, so mean zero-mode condensation occurs exactly when ρ>ρc. When d=3, ρc=λT−3ζ(3/2), λT=(2πℏ2β/m)1/2 in m, and for ρ>ρc the mean condensed fraction is f0=1−ρc/ρ. At fixed ρ, this holds for T<Tc=[2πℏ2/(mkB)](ρ/ζ(3/2))2/3 and f0=1−(T/Tc)3/2.

If d>2 and ρ0=ρ−ρc>0, for every x>0 in m−d the grand-state ground occupation satisfies Var⁡L(N0/V)→ρ02,PL(N0/V≥x)→e−x/ρ0(x>0). For a real random-variable family XL:ΩB→R with laws PL, convergence in probability to a constant a means PL(∣XL−a∣>ε)→0 as L→∞ for every ε>0 (in the same units as XL). In particular XL=N0/V does not converge in probability to its mean limit ρ0 in this grand ensemble.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ACω; m>0 in kg, ℏ>0 in J s, kB>0 in J K−1, T>0 in K, L>0 in m; α in J m2, β=(kBT)−1 in J−1, continuum wave vector p in m−1, V=Ld in md, ρ in m−d, and the one-mode-per-momentum grand preparation.

[A1]

Quantum statistics and model equilibrium preparation: the bosonic grand Gibbs state is an adopted preparation when its trace is finite.

[F1]

Finite spectral periodic Bose/Fermi gas, Statement: for μ<0, mode means are geometric, the finite-volume trace is finite, and scaled occupation sums converge at fixed chemical potential.

[F2]

Lattice Gaussian Riemann limits and the singular Bose endpoint, Statement: the Bose endpoint integral is the extended value (π/(βα))d/2∑ℓ≥1ℓ−d/2 in every dimension, finite exactly for d>2; for μ<0 its continuum integrals increase to this endpoint value, and for d>2 the missing-origin lattice sums converge to it.

Proof

1.1givenA1F1algebra

Under the adopted grand preparation [A1] and periodic mode trace [F1], the finite-volume density as a function of μ<0 is continuous: on each compact subinterval of (−∞,0), the Gaussian trace bound gives a uniform summable majorant for its mode series. It is strictly increasing because every summand is. As μ→−∞ it tends zero by that same Gaussian bound; as μ↑0, the k=0 term diverges. The intermediate value theorem therefore gives exactly one μL<0 for each ρ>0.

1.2givenF1F2algebra

At fixed μ<0, the continuum density is ρ(μ)=(2π)−d∫(eβ(α∣p∣2−μ)−1)−1dp by [F1]. It is continuous and strictly increasing in μ by a compact-parameter Gaussian bound and pointwise strict increase. It tends zero as μ→−∞ by fB≤eβμe−βα∣p∣2/(1−eβμ), and increases to ρc as μ↑0 by monotone convergence [F2]. Thus when d≤2, ρ(μ) runs continuously from zero to infinity; when d>2 it runs from zero to ρc.

2.1step 1.1step 1.2F1algebra

If ρ<ρc (which covers every finite ρ for d≤2), choose the unique μ∗<0 with ρ(μ∗)=ρ. For any μ−<μ∗<μ+<0, fixed-μ convergence from [F1] implies that for all sufficiently large L, the finite-volume densities at μ− and μ+ bracket ρ. Strict monotonicity then traps μL between them. Shrinking the bracket proves μL→μ∗. The ground occupation is (e−βμL−1)−1, which stays bounded as μL→μ∗<0; dividing by Ld gives zero.

2.2step 1.1step 1.2F1F2algebra

Suppose d>2 and ρ≥ρc. For any δ>0, if μL≤−δ along arbitrarily large L, monotonicity bounds the finite-volume density by its value at −δ; fixed-chemical-potential convergence would then give ρ≤ρ(−δ)<ρc, contradiction. Thus μL→0. Let ρex,L be the density excluding k=0. Since μL<0, each excited occupation is at most its value at zero chemical potential, and [F2] gives lim sup⁡Lρex,L≤ρc. For any fixed μ′<0, eventually μL≥μ′, so monotonicity and [F1] give lim inf⁡Lρex,L≥ρ(μ′). Let μ′↑0 and use step 1.2 to get the matching lower bound ρc. Hence ρex,L→ρc and EN0/Ld=ρ−ρex,L→ρ−ρc. At equality this limit is zero.

3.1step 2.2F2algebra

In d=3, evaluate ρc by the series in [F2]: (4πβα)−3/2∑ℓ≥1ℓ−3/2. Substituting α=ℏ2/(2m) gives λT−3ζ(3/2). Solving ρ=ρc(Tc) and using β=(kBT)−1 gives the stated Tc; for T<Tc, division of ρ−ρc(T) by ρ gives 1−(T/Tc)3/2.

4.1step 2.2F1algebra∎

For ρ0>0, step 2.2 gives ELN0/V→ρ0. Write nˉ0,L:=ELN0. The geometric ground-mode law from [F1] has Var⁡L(N0)=nˉ0,L(1+nˉ0,L), so Var⁡L(N0/V)→ρ02. Its parameter is q0,L=nˉ0,L/(1+nˉ0,L), and the geometric tail is PL(N0/V≥x)=q0,L⌈xV⌉. Since Vlog⁡q0,L=−Vlog⁡(1+1/nˉ0,L)→−1/ρ0, this tail tends e−x/ρ0. Taking x=2ρ0 gives PL(∣N0/V−ρ0∣>ρ0/2)≥PL(N0/V≥2ρ0)→e−2>0, which rules out convergence in probability to ρ0. This concerns only the ideal grand ensemble; the proof supplies no canonical equivalence or superfluidity claim.
