Ramifications of topology and thermal fluctuations in quasi-2D   condensates
  We explore the topological transformation of quasi-2D Bose-Einstein condensates of dilute atomic gases, and changes in the low-energy quasiparticles associated with the geometry of the confining potential. In particular, we show the density profile of the condensate and quantum fluctuation follow the transition from a multiply to a simply connected geometry of the confining potential. The thermal fluctuations, in contrast, remain multiply connected. The genesis of the key difference lies in the structure of the low-energy quasiparticles. For which we use the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov, and study the evolution of quasiparticles, the dipole or the Kohn mode in particular. We, then employ the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory with the Popov approximation to investigate the density and the momentum distribution of the thermal atoms.
