We consider a two-component dark matter halo (DMH) of a galaxy containing ultra-light axions (ULA) of different mass. The DMH is described as a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) in its ground state. In the mean-field (MF) limit, we have derived the integro-differential equations for the spherically symmetrical wave functions of the two DMH components. We studied, numerically, the radial distribution of the mass density of ULA and constructed the parameters which could be used to distinguish between the two- and one-component DMH. We also discuss an interesting connection between the BEC ground state of a one-component DMH and Black Hole temperature and entropy, and Unruh temperature.

We suggest that the dark matter halo in some of the spiral galaxies can be described as the ground state of the Bose–Einstein condensate of ultra-light self-gravitating axions. We have also developed an effective “dissipative” algorithm for the solution of nonlinear integro-differential Schrödinger equation describing self-gravitating Bose–Einstein condensate. The mass of an ultra-light axion is estimated.

A Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in a double-well potential, where atoms are incoupled to one side and extracted from the other, can in the mean-field limit be described by the nonlinear Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) with a <em>PT</em> symmetric external potential. If the strength of the in- and outcoupling is increased two <em>PT</em> broken states bifurcate from the <em>PT</em> symmetric ground state. At this bifurcation point a stability change of the ground state is expected. However, it is observed that this stability change does not occur exactly at the bifurcation but at a slightly different strength of the in-/outcoupling effect. We investigate a Bose-Einstein condensate in a <em>PT</em> symmetric double-δ potential and calculate the stationary states. The ground state’s stability is analysed by means of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations and it is shown that the difference in the strength of the in-/outcoupling between the bifurcation and the stability change can be completely explained by the norm-dependency of the nonlinear term in the Gross-Pitaevskii equation.

We consider a dark matter halo (DMH) of a spherical galaxy as a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) of the ultra-light axions (ULA) interacting with the baryonic matter. In the mean-field (MF) limit, we have derived the integro-differential equation of the Hartree–Fock type for the spherically symmetrical wave function of the DMH component. This equation includes two independent dimensionless parameters: (i) [Formula: see text] is the ratio of baryon and axion total mases and (ii) [Formula: see text] is the ratio of characteristic baryon and axion spatial parameters. We extended our “dissipation algorithm” for studying numerically the ground state of the axion halo in the gravitational field produced by the baryonic component. We calculated the characteristic size, [Formula: see text] of DMH as a function of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] and obtained an analytical approximation for [Formula: see text].
