We study the thermodynamic properties of the Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) in the context of the quantum field theory with noncommutative target space. Our main goal is to investigate in which temperature and/or energy regimes the noncommutativity can characterize some influence on the BEC properties described by a relativistic massive noncommutative boson gas. The noncommutativity parameters play a key role in the modified dispersion relations of the noncommutative fields, leading to a new phenomenology. We have obtained the condensate fraction, internal energy, pressure and specific heat of the system and taken ultrarelativistic (UR) and nonrelativistic (NR) limits. The noncommutative effects on the thermodynamic properties of the system are discussed. We found that there appear interesting signatures around the critical temperature.

Chapter 20 examines effects of weak repulsive interactions in a Bose–Einstein condensate and the transition from Bose–Einstein condensate to superfluid phase transition. Renormalization group methods are used and a universal amplitude is calculated by non–perturbative methods. After the discovery of the predicted Bose–Einstein condensation, which is a property of free bosons, an interesting issue was the effects of weak repulsive interactions. In this chapter, it is shown that, near the transition temperature, the initial non–relativistic field theory can be replaced by a relativistic effective Euclidean field theory known to describe a superfluid phase transition (a dimensional reduction). These theoretical considerations are illustrated by an evaluation of the universal variation of the transition temperature at weak coupling. For this purpose, the O(2) symmetry of the model is generalized to O(N) symmetry, and large N techniques are used.
