A lattice formulation of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics is presented, based on a formal analogy with discrete kinetic theory. The method is applied to the Gross–Pitaevski equation, a specific form of self-interacting nonlinear Schrödinger equation relevant to the study of Bose–Einstein condensation.

A stochastic approach to the (generic) mean-field limit in Bose–Einstein Condensation is described and the convergence of the ground-state energy as well as of its components are established. For the one-particle process on the path space, a total variation convergence result is proved. A strong form of Kac’s chaos on path-space for the [Formula: see text]-particles probability measures is derived from the previous energy convergence by purely probabilistic techniques notably using a simple chain-rule of the relative entropy. Fisher’s information chaos of the fixed-time marginal probability density under the generic mean-field scaling limit and the related entropy chaos result are also deduced.
