摘要
We consider the evolution of an interacting dilute Bose-Einstein condensate transferred from a harmonic trap to a perfect box of finite size. We study numerically the influence of the nonlinearities in the system on its dynamics. The parallelism between this problem and the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam problem in the context of matter waves is established. Criteria for the appearance of statistical behavior are discussed. We show that by increasing the nonlinearity we pass from a regime of collapses and revivals for the wave function to a regime of collapses and revivals of regular motion.
