In particular, the second-order response functions and susceptibilities of finite-temperature Bose Einstein condensates (BECs) in a one-dimensional harmonic trap driven by an external field coupled to particle density are calculated by solving the time-dependent Hartree Fock Bogoliubov equations. These provide additional insight into the BEC dynamics, beyond those of the linear response regime. We further demonstrate that the results directly apply to electron liquids in the fractional quantum Hall effect regime that can be mapped onto an effective boson system coupled to a Chern Simons gauge field.. INTRODUCTION The study of strongly correlated systems has been one of the most vigorous areas of research in condensed-matter physics. Some notable examples include Bose Einstein condensation and associated phenomena, such as superfluidity and superconductivity [], and the quantum Hall effect in two-dimensional electron systems [2]. A useful tool for the study of such complex, correlated many-body systems is provided by linear and nonlinear response functions to external perturbations. The linear response provides an adequate description of systems subjected to weak external perturbations. For stronger perturbations, nonlinear effects contained in the higher order terms in the perturbation series in the driving field may not be ignored and provide useful insights. The nonlinear response formalism has had remarkable successes in the field of nonlinear optics, where the coherent response of semiconductor metals and molecular systems to multiple laser fields is routinely analyzed in terms of multitime correlation functions [3, 4]. It is by now well known that strong similarities exist between nonlinear optics and the dynamics of Bose- Einstein condensates (BECs) owing to the intrinsic interatomic interactions in Bose condensates. Previous work done in this area includes the demonstration of four-wave mixing in zero-temperature BEC using the Gross Pitaevskii equation (GPE) []. We have recently studied an externally driven, finite-temperature BEC described by the time-dependent Hartree Fock Bogoliubov (TDHFB) equations [6]. A systematic procedure was outlined for solving these equations perturbatively in the applied external field, and positiondependent linear response functions and susceptibilities were calculated [7]. In this paper, we extend the formalism of [7] to obtain the nonlinear response of BEC and fractional quantum Hall system. Several dynamical theories exist for finite-temperature BEC that take into account higher order collision processes. They include the Hartree Fock Bogoliubov (HFB) theory [8 ], the time-dependent Bogoliubov de Gennes equations [2], quantum kinetic theory [3 8], and stochastic methods [9 23]. The TDHFB theory is a self-consistent theory of BEC in the collisionless regime that progresses logically from the Gross Pitaevskii equation by taking into account higher order correlations of noncondensate operators. Although TDHFB neglects higher order correlations included in the various quantum kinetic theories, the TDHFB equations are valid at very low temperatures near zero, even down to the zero-temperature limit, and are far simpler than the kinetic equations, which can only be solved under certain approximations [6]. Another attractive feature of TDHFB from a purely pragmatic point of view is that the fermionic version of the theory has already been well developed in nuclear physics [8]. We therefore work at the TDHFB level in this paper, and our approach draws upon the analogy with the timedependent Hartree Fock (TDHF) formalism developed for nonlinear optical response of many-electron systems [24]. Another important, strongly correlated many-body system that we consider in this paper is the two-dimensional (2D) electron system in the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) regime [2]. The FQHE for a 2D electron gas in a strong, perpendicular, external magnetic field has been observed through the quantization of the Hall dc conductivity σ H (ν) as a function of the 342

2 NONLINEAR RESPONSE FUNCTIONS 343 filling factor ν (2πn)/(mω c ), where n is the mean 2D density of the electrons, ω c eb/mc is the cyclotron frequency, and B is the magnetic field; e is the electron charge (we set c and ). At ν /(2k + ), where k is an integer k, 2,, σ H (ν) varies in discrete steps and is given by σ H (ν) ν(e 2 /2π). Nonlinear response functions for FQHE systems have not been extensively studied so far. We demonstrate in this paper that the FQHE is, in fact, formally related to a BEC driven by an external potential, allowing the results obtained for BEC to be carried over directly to FQHE. The nonlinear response of a 2D electron system in the FQHE regime at fixed temperature is important, since it can be used to distinguish between the Fermi liquid and Luttinger chiral liquid behavior [2]. It has been shown that, for ν /(2k + ), the original 2D fermion problem can be mapped into a boson system coupled to a Chern Simons gauge field added to the time-independent external magnetic field, where the original fermion system and the boson system have the same charge density and Hall conductivity [26 28]. The static Hall conductivity (xy component of the conductivity tensor) calculated for this boson system, σ H ν(e 2 /2π), coincides with the conductivity obtained by using Laughlin s ansatz for the many-electron wave function [29]. For an even inverse filling number ν /(2k), the original fermion problem is mapped onto a composite fermion system coupled to a Chern Simons gauge field [3]. At ν /2, this gauge field eliminates the external effective vector potential for the effective composite fermion system [3 33]. In this paper, we consider FQHE with the odd inverse denominator of the filling number ν /(2k + ). Using this mapping, we can apply our results based on a generalized coherent state (GCS) ansatz for the many-particle wave function of a weakly interacting effective boson system [7, 39, 4] to compute the second-order response of FQHE. The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, the second-order time and frequency domain response functions for an externally driven BEC are presented, including the discussion of numerical results for a condensate of 2 atoms in a one-dimensional harmonic trap. We then show in Section 3 how the formalism may be applied for computing the second-order response for a fractional quantum Hall system. In Section 4, we conclude. More detailed derivation of the second-order response functions and susceptibilities are provided in Appendices C and D, respectively. 2. NONLINEAR RESPONSE OF AN ETERNALLY DRIVEN BEC 2.. Formalism We adopt the notation of [7] throughout the paper. The Hamiltonian describing the system of an externally driven, trapped atomic BEC is given by where and with () (2) (3) E ij () t d 3 rφ i ( r)v f ( r, t)φ j ( r). (4) The boson operators â i ( â i ) create (annihilate) a particle from a basis state with wave functions φ i (r). The single-particle Hamiltonian H sp in Eq. (2) is diagonal if the basis state φ i (r) is chosen to be the eigenstates of the trap, while the symmetrized interaction matrix elements, where Ĥ ij Ĥ Ĥ + Ĥ' (), t H ij sp â i â j + -- V 2 ijkl â i â j â k â l, describe the collision between the atoms, with V(r r') being a general interatomic potential. H'(t) describes the effect of a general external force V f (r, t) on the condensate that mimics the mechanical force applied experimentally, such as shaking of the trap [34, 3]. The dynamics of the system is calculated by solving the time-dependent Hartree Fock Bogoliubov (TDHFB) equations for the condensate mean field, z i â i, the noncondensate density ρ ij â i â j â i â j, and the noncondensate correlations κ ij â i â j â i â j. These are presented in Appendix A. These nonlinear coupled equations are solved by an order-byorder expansion of the variables z i, ρ ij, and κ ij ; at each order, the resulting equations to be solved become linear [7]. It is found that the sequence of linear equations to be solved has the general form i dψ ( n) () t ( n) ψ ( n) () t + λ ( n) (), t (7) dt where we have denoted the set of nth-order variables ( n) ( n) ( n) z i, ρ ij, and κ ij as a 2N(2N + ) column vector in the Liouville space notation, where N is the number of basis states used, ψ ( n) (t) [ z ( n) (t), z ( n) (t), ρ ( n) (t), ijkl H' () t η E ij ()â t i â j, ij V ijkl -- [ ij Vkl + ji Vkl ], 2 ij Vkl d 3 rd 3 r'φ i ( r)φ j ( r' )V( r r' )φ k ( r' )φ l ( r), () (6) LASER PHYSICS Vol. 4 No. 24

3 344 CHOI et al. Real-space noncondensate density and noncondensate correlations are, in general, nonlocal functions of two spatial points ρ(r', r) and κ(r', r). We consider the r r' case in this paper, as this is most physically accessible. Measuring these quantities with r r' involves observing atomic correlations, which is far more difficult than for photonic counterparts, since, for a matter wave, merely implementing individual components, such as beam splitters and mirrors, requires a largeκ ( n) (t), ρ ( n) (t), κ n (t)] T, and the 2N(2N + ) 2N(2N + ) matrix (n) is the nth-order Liouville operator obtained from the TDHFB equations [7]. The matrices (n) for all orders n > are identical, i.e., () (2) (n), so that only the matrices () and () are required to be calculated. () and () are presented in Appendix B. The formal solution to Eq. (7) is ψ ( n) () t t ---- i i exp -- ( n) ( t t' ) λ ( n) ( t' ) dt'. (8) In the frequency domain, the solution to Eq. (7) takes the form ψ ( n) ψ ( n) ( ω) λ ( n) ( ω), ω n (9) where (ω) and λ (n) (ω) are the Fourier transforms of ψ ( n) (t) and λ (n) (t), respectively. For the zeroth order (n ), we obtain the time-independent HFB equations (TIHFB) ψ () t, () while, for the first order (n ), the equation solved is Eq. (7) with λ () (t) being a 2N(2N + ) vector ζ(t) calculated in [7]; ζ(t) is also presented in Appendix B. Once the nth-order solution to TDHFB is found, we can proceed to define the nth-order response functions. The physical significance of the response functions becomes more transparent when the nth-order solutions α (n), where α is one of the variables z, ρ, or κ, are expressed in real space. We therefore introduce the position-dependent variables written in terms of the trap eigenstate basis: ρ n ( n) ( r, t) z j ()φ t j ( r), z n j ( n) ( r, t) ρ ij ()φ t i ( r)φ j ( r), κ n ij ( n) ( r, t) κ ij ()φ t i ( r)φ j ( r). ij () (2) (3) scale experimental effort. The position-dependent nthorder solution ψ ( n) (r, t) [ z ( n) (r, t), z ( n) (r, t), ρ ( n) (r, t), κ ( n) (r, t), ρ ( n) (r, t), κ ( n) (r, t)] T can be defined in the Liouville space notation from relations () (3) by introducing a 2N(2N + ) 2N(2N + ) square matrix ϒ (r): where ( r, t) ϒ ( r)ψ ( n) (), t ψ n (4) ϒ ( r) () diag[ φ ( r), φ ( r), Φ ρ ( r), Φ κ ( r), Φ ρ ( r), Φ κ ( r) ]. Here, diag[ ] denotes that ϒ (r) is a block diagonal square matrix made of N N blocks φ (r), φ (r) and N 2 N 2 blocks Φ ρ (r), Φ κ (r), Φ ρ (r), Φ κ (r). φ (r) is itself a diagonal matrix with the ith diagonal element given by the basis states φ i (r), and Φ ρ (r) and Φ κ (r) are also diagonal matrices whose ijth diagonal element is given by [Φ ρ (r)] ij, ij φ i (r)φ j (r), and [Φ κ (r)] ij, ij φ i (r)φ j (r), respectively. Individual real-space variables z (n) (r, t), ρ (n) (r, t), and κ (n) (r, t) are then obtained by summing over the appropriate elements of the vector (r, t): ψ n κ n ρ n ( n) ( r, t) ψ i ( r, t), z n n i 2n+ n 2 ( n) ( r, t) ψ i ( r, t), i 2n + 2n + 2n 2 ( n) ( r, t) ψ i ( r, t). i 2n+ n 2 + (6) The position-dependent second-order (n 2) response function K α (t, t, t 2, r, r, r 2 ) is defined as follows: α 2 ( r, t) K α ( t, t, t 2, rr,, r 2 ), V f ( r, t )V f ( r 2, t 2 ) dt dt 2 dr dr 2, (7) where α (2) (r, t) are second-order solutions, α z, ρ, κ.

(3) may be written as Ξ K ( Ω, Ω 2, r, r 2 ) K, K, K, K, K, K (33) with the N matrix K and N 2 matrices K, K given in Appendix D (Eqs. (D.8) (D.2)) Time Domain Response So far, all our results were given in the trap basis and hold for a general interatomic interaction potential. In the following numerical calculations, we approximate the interatomic potential V(r r') in Eq. (6) by a contact potential: 4π 2 a V( r r' ) U δ( r r' ), U , (34) m where a is the s-wave scattering length and m is the atomic mass. This is valid because wave functions at ultracold temperatures have very long wavelengths compared to the range of interatomic potential implying that details of the interatomic potential become unimportant. The tetradic matrices V ijkl defined in Eq. (6) are then simply given by 4π 2 a V ijkl (3) m φ ( r )φ i j ( r)φ k ( r)φ l ( r) dr. We consider a 2-atom one-dimensional (D) condensate in a harmonic trap. As demonstrated by the extensive body of literature so far, consideration of a D BEC helps us to identify key features of a BEC when full 3D simulation is computationally prohibitive. The parameters used for our numerical calculation of ψ are as follows: U 4π a., and temperatures ω trap /k and ω trap /k, where ω trap is the trap m frequency, k is the Boltzmann constant, and the basis set size of N is used, which was found to be sufficient for the purposes of simulation; a higher basis number did not noticeably alter the final results. We keep the trap units throughout with 26 grid points for position. The same parameters were used in the calculations of the linear response in [7]. To solve for the second-order response, both the zeroth- and the first-order solutions must be found. Calculation of the zeroth-order solution from the TIHFB T equations is the most numerically involved step, as it requires solving nonlinear coupled equations. Griffin has provided a self-consistent prescription for solving the TIHFB, in terms of the Bogoliubov de Gennes equations []. We have therefore followed the prescription of [] to find the solution to TIHFB. Once the zeroth-order solution is found, it is straightforward to calculate the first- and the second-order response functions. The calculation of the eigenvalues of the non- Hermitian matrix (2) required for computing the response functions was carried out using the Arnoldi algorithm [36]. In order to provide an indication of the structure of the matrix (2), we first plot in Fig. the linear susceptibility K () (Ω, r, r ) for zero and finite temperatures. Peak positions indicate the resonant frequencies. The second-order time domain response functions given in Eqs. (8) (2) and Appendix C have been calculated. We first obtained the numerical solution to TIHFB; the 2N(2N + ) vector ψ evaluated at zero and finite temperatures; the 2N(2N + ) 2N(2N + ) matrices ϒ,, and Φ defined in Eqs. (), (23), and (24); and the 2N(2N + ) vector Ξ K defined in Eqs. (2) and (C.8). Substituting these into Eqs. (2) and (22), the final calculation involves matrix multiplication of 2N(2N + ) vectors ψ and Ξ K with 2N(2N + ) 2N(2N + ) matrices ϒ,, and Φ and integration over the time variable τ. ϒ and Φ are constructed in terms of the harmonic oscillator basis states, which are calculated numerically from the recursive formula that involves the Gaussian function multiplying the Hermite polynomials [37]. The matrix is calculated using a MATLAB function that uses the Padé approximation for matrix exponentiation [38]. We present the second-order response function in the time domain K (2) (t, t, t 2, r, r, r 2 ) as a function of r and r at various times t, t, t 2 and r 2. This provides a way to depict graphically the correlation involving six variables t, t, t 2, r, r, and r 2 on a two-dimensional plot and gives a snapshot of the position-dependent second-order correlations across the condensate. The times t, t, and t 2 are, respectively, the time of detection and the time of the first and second applied short fields, while r, r, and r 2 denote the corresponding spatial variables. The position dependence is important since the experimentally produced condensates are mesoscopic in size; in optical spectroscopy, however, the dipole approximation usually applies and, consequently, the spatial dependence of the response is irrelevant. Figure 2 shows the absolute value of the second-order response functions in the time domain with the time t 2 fixed at t 2.

All positions are referred to in harmonic oscillator length units.

The times are given in units of the trap period, /ω trap. The top, middle, and bottom rows give the response function for the condensate z, noncondensate density ρ, and noncondensate correlation κ, respectively. The dashed circle represents the spatial extent of the trapped BEC. The corresponding plot for a finite-temperature BEC at temperature T ω trap /k is displayed in Fig. 3. The spatially asymmetric function at r 2 reverse shape for r 2, with similar changes also observed for the r 2 ±2. pair. With r 2 ±2., which is a point inside the atomic cloud, the contours had a markedly less symmetric shape than for r 2 ± at the very edge of the atomic cloud. The response functions take a more symmetric shape as time increases. The r 2 dependence of the response function is found to be reduced at longer times. Comparing Figs. 2 and 3, the response functions clearly show a strong temperature dependence, with the functions giving distinct contours at different temperatures. The response functions attain spatial symmetry more rapidly at zero temperature owing to the weaker coupling between the variables z, ρ, and κ Frequency Domain Response Using Eqs. (27) (29), we have calculated the second-order susceptibility. It involves matrix multiplication of 2N(2N + ) vectors ψ and Ξ K (ω) defined in Appendix D with the 2N(2N + ) 2N(2N + ) matrices ϒ, (ω), and Φ. The Green s function (ω) is calculated as follows: ( ω) ω + i ξ ν ζ , ν ω + i (36) where ξ ν is the right eigenvector of (2) with eigenvalues ω ν such that (2) ξ ν ω ν ξ ν and ζ ν are the left eigenvectors of (2) such that ξ ν ζ. The eigenvalues ω ν of (2) were calculated using the Arnoldi algo- ν ν rithm [36].

The top, middle, and bottom rows give the response function for the condensate, noncondensate density, and noncondensate correlation, respectively. The frequencies Ω and Ω 2 are given in units of the trap frequency. ture, the resonant frequencies are shifted from the zerotemperature counterpart, so that the actual frequency combinations used are the following: Ω, Ω 2, and Ω + Ω 2 are off-resonant (Ω 2.4, Ω 2.6); both Ω and Ω 2 are on-resonance, while Ω + Ω 2 is off-resonant (Ω 2.43, Ω 2.); and frequencies with Ω + Ω 2 are on-resonance (Ω.92, Ω 2.). The susceptibilities become more spatially symmetric as resonant frequencies are matched. The most symmetric function was generated when the sum of two frequencies Ω and Ω 2 was on-resonance, while the least symmetric function resulted when both frequencies were off-resonant. When only of one of the frequencies was on-resonance, a result with an intermediate level of symmetry was observed. The dependence of the response function on r 2 is strongest for the off-resonant case, while the one where Ω + Ω 2 is on-resonance remains more or less unaffected by the changes. As in the time domain response, the asymmetric function at r 2 reverse shape for r 2. Such change was also observed for the r 2 ±2. pair; again, for r 2 ±2., which is inside the atomic cloud, the contours were found to be less symmetric than the corresponding figures for r 2 ±. In Fig. 6, we plot the second-order susceptibility at zero temperature as a function of Ω and Ω 2 with the position variables set at r r r 2, i.e., at the center of the atomic cloud. The left column shows K (2) (Ω, Ω 2 ), i.e., the absolute value of the second-order response function. The plot shows only few peaks near the frequency of because the difference between the magnitude of these highest few peaks and the rest of the peaks occurring at other frequencies is too large. This suggests that one should ideally tune into the combination of frequencies Ω and Ω 2 corresponding to these highest peaks to observe the maximum second-order response experimentally. The second frequency Ω 2 implies a completely different physics compared to the linear response; Ω 2 is the frequency of a new harmonic being generated as a result of a strong external perturbation oscillating at frequency Ω. The middle column of Fig. 6 gives K (2) (Ω, Ω 2 ), where the largest peaks are scaled down to the magnitude of the smaller peaks present. It clearly shows a number of peaks present at frequencies Ω and Ω 2 less than and also shows that, with Ω (Ω 2 ) fixed at, there is a pronounced response for many values of Ω 2 (Ω ). The right column of Fig. 6 shows the logarithm of the left column. This enables the LASER PHYSICS Vol. 4 No. 24

The frequencies Ω and Ω 2 are given in units of the trap frequency. Ω 2 Ω 2 large variations in the magnitude of K (2) (Ω, Ω 2 ) to be displayed. The top, middle, and bottom rows give the response function for the condensate, noncondensate density, and noncondensate correlation, respectively. Figure 7 shows the corresponding plot at the finite temperature T ω trap /k. The main difference is that there are more peaks appearing around frequency < Ω i <, i, 2 than at zero temperature. Since the second-order susceptibility K (2) (Ω, Ω 2 ) is by itself a product of several Green s functions (ω) and linear susceptibilities K () (ω), ω Ω, Ω 2, and Ω + Ω 2, several features of Figs. 6 and 7 are closely related to the linear susceptibility. From Fig., it is clear that the linear susceptibility near the frequency of dominates the spectrum at both zero and finite temperatures. It is therefore expected that any second-order response K (2) (Ω, Ω 2 ) containing a Ω or Ω 2 component in it will lend a much stronger contribution to the spectrum than those not at Ω or Ω 2. This explains the features around Ω and Ω 2. In addition, the linear susceptibility K () (ω) at finite temperature has more peaks around frequencies < ω < than at zero temperature, as there are more resonances below the frequency of at finite temperature. This leads to the second-order susceptibility K (2) (Ω, Ω 2 ) displaying more peaks around frequency < Ω < and < Ω 2 <, as illustrated in Fig NONLINEAR RESPONSE OF FRACTIONAL QUANTUM HALL SYSTEMS In this section, we establish the correspondence between the FQHE effective Bose Hamiltonian and the Hamiltonian equations () (6). With this correspondence, the nonlinear response functions derived above may be applied directly. We note that nonlinear response functions have not been extensively studied for FQHE systems, and, hence, this mapping provides a useful starting point. We start with the many-electron effective Hamiltonian Ĥ, where the electron electron interaction contains Coulomb repulsion V(r r') / r r', an external magnetic vector potential A(r), and an external electrical scalar potential V f (r, t) [7, 4]: Ĥ d t d rψˆ e ( r, t) ( i r e( Ar )) µ ψˆ 2m e ( r, t) (37) dt dr dr'ψˆ e ( r, t)ψˆ e ( r', t) V( r r' )ψˆ e ( r', t)ψˆ e ( r, t) + d t d rψˆ e ( r, t)v f ( r, t)ψˆ e ( r, t), where ψˆ e (r, t) and ψˆ e (r, t) are Fermi creation and annihilation operators, m is the effective electron band mass, and µ is the chemical potential. LASER PHYSICS Vol. 4 No. 24

13 34 CHOI et al. We next introduce a quasiparticle creation operator ψˆ (r, t), which is related to ψˆ e (r, t) as [3] ψˆ ( r, t) (38) ψˆ e ( r, t) exp[ iν d r' arg( r r' )nˆ ( r', t) ], where arg(r r') is the angle between the vector (r r') and the direction of the Hall current (which is perpendicular to both the external magnetic field B r A(r) and the external electric field E r V f (r, t), which are perpendicular to each other); ν is an odd integer; and nˆ (r, t) is the charge density operator, which is the same for the actual Fermi and artificial Bose system, nˆ ( r, t) ψˆ e ( r, t)ψˆ e ( r, t) ψˆ ( r, t)ψˆ ( r, t). (39) The operators ψˆ (r, t) and ψˆ (r, t) satisfy Bose commutation relations [26, 27] ψˆ ( r)ψˆ ( r' ) ψˆ ( r' )ψˆ ( r) δ( r r' ); ψˆ ( r)ψˆ ( r' ) ψˆ ( r' )ψˆ ( r) ; (4) ψˆ ( r)ψˆ ( r' ) ψˆ ( r' )ψˆ ( r). Using the Bose quasiparticle operators (Eq. (38)), the Hamiltonian equation (37) can be written in the form of a many-boson effective Hamiltonian Ĥ by adding the gauge Chern Simons vector potential a(r) [26, 28]: (4) V( r r' )ψˆ ( r', t)ψˆ ( r, t) + d t d rψˆ ( r, t)v f ( r, t)ψˆ ( r, t). In order for the static Hall conductivity of the boson Hamiltonian equation (4) in Hartree Fock Bogoliubov approximation [6] to coincide with the conductivity obtained by using Laughlin s ansatz for the manyelectron wave function [29], the magnetic and gauge potentials in k space should satisfy [28] 2π A α ( k) + a α ( k) αβ ik β ( nˆ (42) eν k 2 k n). Here, αβ is a unit antisymmetric tensor, αβ ; (43) n is the mean 2D electron density, n (mνω c )/(2π); and the Fourier components of the charge density operator Ĥ d t d rψˆ ( r, t) i ( r e( Ar + ar )) µ ψˆ ( r, t) 2m dt dr dr'ψˆ ( r, t)ψˆ ( r', t) nˆ k with momentum k are nˆ k â k â k, k (44) where and â k are Fourier components of ψˆ (r) and ψˆ (r). Using a basis set of single electron functions φ i (r), the field operators may be expanded in the form ψˆ ( r, t) φ i ( r)â i (), t â k a i i ψˆ ( r, t) φ i ( r)â i (), t i (4) where and a i are Bose operators. We make the following GCS Hartree Fock Bogoliubov ansatz for the time-dependent many-boson wave function [6, 9]: ψ() t exp( d t d rα( r, t)ψˆ ( r) + dt d rdr'β ( rr',, t )ψˆ ( r)ψˆ ( r' ) )Ω (46) α i ()â t i β ij ()â t exp + i â j Ω, i ij where Ω is an arbitrary normalized reference state with Ω Ω [6]. On the other hand, the operator set of GCS generators of the closed algebra [39, 4] in the exponent of the ansatz equation (46) creates an extended Heisenberg Weyl algebra, which may be obtained by a repeated application of the standard boson commutators. The Hamiltonian that describes the system of manybody interacting bosons is obtained and comes from the basis set expansion of the Hamiltonian equation (4) and is given by [28] Ĥ Ĥ ij â i â j + V ijkl â i â j â k â l ij ijkl (47) + η E ij ()â t i â j. ij Note that the Hamiltonian equation (47) coincides with sp Eqs.

() We can therefore apply the results obtained for the Hamiltonian equations () (6) to the FQHE by simply sp replacing H ij in Eq. (2) by H ij (Eq. (48)). Since, in a homogeneous system, the momentum is conserved, we can use the plane wave basis, i.e., the eigenfunctions of momentum p (φ p (r) S /2 exp( ipr), where S is the 2D volume of a system) by replacing the indices i by the momentum p. The second-order response is given by Eqs. (D.24) (D.27) in the plane wave basis, provided that for the Hamiltonian we use Eqs. () and (2) in the Liouvillian equation (B.6) with V trap and replace the interparticle interaction V ijkl by 2πe 2 4π 2 n V p p' , () p p' mν 2 2 p p' where the first term in the right-hand side represents the 2D Fourier transform component of the Coulomb repulsion and the second term comes from substituting Eq. (42) into Eq. (47). With these substitutions, the FQHE boson Hamiltonian equation (47) reduces to the classical form of Eq. (9) [28] and is equivalent to the classical boson Hamiltonian (Eq. (4) in [6]). The double excitations are given by the eigenvalues of the Liouvillian equation (B.6). The anisotropy in the gauge term equation (42) in the Hamiltonian equation (47) gives a nonvanishing second-order response, shifting the double-excitation energies with respect to twice the single excitations, as is the case in isotropic systems. 4. CONCLUSIONS We have calculated the second-order response functions and susceptibilities of both zero- and finite-temperature Bose Einstein condensates (BECs). The systematic, perturbative solution of the TDHFB equations for trapped, atomic BEC enables us to analyze the dynamics of finite-temperature BEC. The responses of both the noncondensate atoms and the condensate were calculated. The calculations apply for a general perturbation of the form d3 rφ i (r)v f (r, t) â, where ij i â j the shape of the external force V f (r, t) is left arbitrary. The calculated second-order response functions were found to show a strong dependence on position and temperature. In the frequency domain, we have observed a distinct nonlinear mixing effect, which displays enhanced response at a number of Ω Ω 2 combinations. The second-order response for BEC has not been reported yet, and most related recent work is limited to the linear response. As in optics, the second- and higher order response functions and susceptibilities are expected to be indispensable in characterizing the BEC dynamics in the presence of strong perturbations and, more importantly, in further development of matterwave nonlinear optics []. We have also found that the second-order response functions calculated for an externally driven BEC are directly applicable to the important physical phenomenon of FQHE, and the GCS ansatz was applied for the derivation of the second-order response of FQHE in a 2D electron liquid. Although the relationship between a rapidly rotating BEC and QHE has been investigated previously [4], our results correspond to a case in which BEC is not necessarily rotating, providing a potentially useful conceptual connection between BEC and FQHE.
