+\title{Main Theorem}
+\vskip-5pt
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item If $v(x)\geqslant 0$ and $v\in L_1\cap L_{\frac d2+\epsilon}(\mathbb R^d)$, then Lieb's simple equation
+ $$
+ (-\Delta+4e+v)u=v+2e\rho u\ast u
+ ,\quad
+ e=\frac\rho2\int dx\ (1-u(x))v(x)
+ $$
+ has an integrable solution (proved constructively), with $0\leqslant u\leqslant 1$.
+
+ \item In 3 dimensions,
+ $$
+ e=2\pi\rho a\left(1+\frac{128}{15\sqrt\pi}\sqrt{\rho a^3}+o(\sqrt\rho)\right)
+ ,\quad
+ \frac{e}\rho\mathop{\longrightarrow}_{\rho\to\infty}\frac12\int dx\ v(x)
+ $$
+
+ \item If $v(x)\equiv v(|x|)$ is radially symmetric and decays exponentially,
+ $$
+ u(|x|)\mathop\sim_{|x|\to\infty}\frac\alpha{|x|^4}
+ $$
+\end{itemize}
+\vfill

+
+\title{Existence of a solution (sketch)}
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Change the point of view: fix $e>0$, and compute $\rho$ and $u$.
+
+ \item Iteration: $u_0=0$,
+ $$
+ (-\Delta+4e+v)u_n=v+2e\rho_{n-1}u_{n-1}\ast u_{n-1}
+ ,\quad
+ \rho_n:=\frac{2e}{\int dx\ (1-u_n(x))v(x)}
+ .
+ $$
+
+ \item Prove by induction that $u_n(x)$ is an increasing sequence, and is bounded $u_n(x)\leqslant 1$. It therefore converges to a function $u$, which is the unique integrable solution of the equation with $e$ fixed.
+
+ \item In addition, we prove that $e\mapsto\rho(e)$ is continuous, and $\rho(0)=0$ and $\rho(\infty)=\infty$, which allows us to compute solutions for the problem at fixed $\rho$. This does not imply the uniqueness of the solution.
+\end{itemize}
+\vfill
+\eject
+
+\title{Asymptotics (sketch)}
+\vskip-10pt
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item When $\rho$ is small, $e$ is small as well, so the solution $u$ is {\it not too far from} the solution of the scattering equation
+ $$
+ (-\Delta+v)\varphi=v
+ .
+ $$
+
+ \item The energy of $\varphi$ is
+ $$
+ \frac\rho 2\int dx\ (1-\varphi(x))v(x)=2\pi\rho a
+ $$
+ which yields the first term in the expansion.
+
+ \item The second term comes from approximating
+ $$
+ (1-u(x))v(x)\approx\frac{2e}\rho\delta(x)
+ $$
+ and solving the equation in Fourier space.
+\end{itemize}
+\vfill
+\eject
+
+\title{Decay (sketch)}
+$$
+ (-\Delta+4e+v)u=v+2e\rho u\ast u
+ ,\quad
+ e=\frac\rho2\int dx\ (1-u(x))v(x)
+$$
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item $u$ and $u\ast u$ have to decay at the same rate. This is a property of algebraically decaying functions.
+
+ \item (Remark: if $f(x)\geqslant f\ast f(x)$ and $\int f=\frac12$, then (morally) $f\sim|x|^{d+1}$.)
+
+ \item (Remark: $u_n(x)$ decays exponentially).
+
+ \item Proof is based on the Fourier transform and complex analysis.
+
+ \item Remark: The truncated two-point correlation function of the Bose gas is also conjectured to decay like $|x|^{-4}$.

+\title{Conclusion}
+\vfill
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Simple equation: correct asymptotics for the ground state energy at both high and low densities.
+
+ \item Good approximation for intermediate densities (relative error of 5\%).
+
+ \item Intriguing non-linear PDE.
+
+ \item Proved existence, asymptotics, and decay rate.
+\end{itemize}

+
+\title{Open problems and conjectures}
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Monotonicity of $e\mapsto\rho(e)$, and concavity of $e\mapsto\frac1{\rho(e)}$ (would imply uniqueness).
+
+ \item Other observables? Condensate fraction? (in progress)
+
+ \item Crystallization?
+
+ \item {\it Lieb's simple equation} is actually a simplified version of a more complicated one: {\it Lieb's full equation}. Can it improve on the simple one? (in progress)
