The effects of a finite number of particles on the thermodynamic properties of ideal Bose and Fermi gases trapped in any-dimensional harmonic potential are investigated. The orders of relative corrections to the thermodynamic quantities due to the finite number of particles are estimated in different situations. The results obtained for the two trapped quantum gases are compared, and consequently, it is shown that the finite-particle-number effects for the condensed Bose gas (a Bose gas with Bose–Einstein Condensation (BEC) occurring in the system) are much more significant than those for the Fermi gas and normal Bose gas (a Bose gas without BEC).

The Bose–Einstein condensation and appearance of superfluidity and superconductivity are introduced from basic phenomena. A systematic theory based on the asymmetric expansion of chapter 11 is shown to correct the T-matrix from unphysical multiple-scattering events. The resulting generalised Soven scheme provides the Beliaev equations for Boson’s and the Nambu–Gorkov equations for fermions without the usage of anomalous and non-conserving propagators. This systematic theory allows calculating the fluctuations above and below the critical parameters. Gap equations and Bogoliubov–DeGennes equations are derived from this theory. Interacting Bose systems with finite temperatures are discussed with successively better approximations ranging from Bogoliubov and Popov up to corrected T-matrices. For superconductivity, the asymmetric theory leading to the corrected T-matrix allows for establishing the stability of the condensate and decides correctly about the pair-breaking mechanisms in contrast to conventional approaches. The relation between the correlated density from nonlocal kinetic theory and the density of Cooper pairs is shown.
