\title{Conclusions}
\begin{itemize}
\item Two {\color{highlight}effective equations}: the {\color{ipurple}big equation} and the {\color{iblue}simple equation}, which are {\color{highlight}non-linear 1-particle equations}.
\item Reproduce the known results for both {\color{highlight}small and large densities}.
\item Their derivation is {\color{highlight}different from Bogolyubov theory}, so they may give new insights onto studying the Bose gas in these asymptotic regimes.
\item The {\color{ipurple}big equation} is {\color{highlight}quantitatively accurate} at intermediate densities.
\item This opens up the possibility of studying the physics of the {\color{highlight}Bose gas at intermediate densities}.
\end{itemize}
