In particular, two modified thermodynamic limits of infinite dilution turned out to provide an insight in this analysis, the so-\\ncalled Gross-Pitaevskii limit and the related Tomas-Fermi limit. Here such scalings are discussed with respect to their physical and mathematical motivations, and to the currently known results obtained within this framework.}, doi = {10.1063/1.2783114}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/1963/1984}, author = {Alessandro Michelangeli} }
