Abstract

The nonlinear Schrödinger equations have attracted a lot of attention from the mathematical community, which emphasizes the importance of making their derivation rigorous. In this talk, we look at the derivation of a certain type of NLS from many-body interactions of bosonic particles with many-body interactions.
