Weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate with stochastic resetting

Abstract

Stochastic resetting can generate strong correlations in many-body systems through a shared fluctuating environment. Here, we investigate how such dynamically emergent correlations (DEC) coexist with intrinsic (direct) interactions in a weakly repulsive Bose-Einstein condensate described within the Gross-Pitaevskii framework. The condensate undergoes free expansion from an initial Thomas-Fermi state and is stochastically reset to this initial state at a constant rate. We show that the resetting protocol drives the system into a unique nonequilibrium steady state and obtain its density profile, edge statistics, and full counting statistics analytically. The steady-state density retains an inverted-parabolic form within the core, while developing exponentially decaying tails outside it. We further show that resetting induces nontrivial fluctuations of the condensate edge and particle number, yielding exact scaling forms for the edge distribution and the full counting statistics. Our results provide a tractable setting for exploring the interplay between intrinsic repulsive interactions and attractive DEC generated by a common stochastic environment in quantum many-body systems.
