In this section we will investigate the applicability of the above theory. Let us consider a condensate which is a solution of the eigenvalue problem $ \partial_{t}\psi_{0} = -i \Omega \psi_{0}$. Therefore, the GP equation ([*]) becomes

$\displaystyle \Omega \psi_{0}+\triangle\psi_{0}-\varrho\psi_{0} - U\psi_{0} = 0.$ (15)
