Abstract

We consider a gas of bosons interacting through a hard-sphere potential with radius \fraka in the thermodynamic limit. We derive a simple upper bound for the ground state energy per particle at low density. Our bound captures the leading term 4πρ\fraka and shows that corrections are smaller than C ρ\fraka (ρ\fraka3)1/2, for a sufficiently large constant C > 0. In combination with a known lower bound, our result implies that the first sub-leading term to the ground state energy is, in fact, of the order ρ\fraka (ρ\fraka3)1/2, in agreement with the Lee-Huang-Yang prediction.
