We find a general solution to that problem and present it here for the cases of Bose-Einstein condensation in an interacting gas and ferromagnetism in a lattice of spins, interacting via a Heisenberg or Ising Hamiltonian. For Bose-Einstein condensation, we present the exact, valid for the entire critical region, equations for the Green functions and order parameter, that is a critical-region extension of the Beliaev-Popov and Gross-Pitaevskii equations. For the magnetic phase transition, we find an exact theory in terms of constrained bosons in a lattice and obtain similar equations for the Green functions and order parameter. In particular, we outline an exact solution for the three-dimensional Ising model.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-10-26T01:05:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "microscopic theory", "order parameter", "bose-einstein condensation", "green functions", "magnetic phase transition" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "IOP", "journal": "Physica Scripta", "year": 2015, "month": "Oct", "volume": 90, "number": 10, "pages": 108002 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015PhyS...90j8002K" } } }
