text: A lower bound is derived on the free energy (per unit volume) of a homogeneous
Bose gas at density Q and temperature T. In the dilute regime, i.e., when a3 1,
where a denotes the scattering length of the pair-interaction potential, our bound
differs to leading order from the expression for non-interacting particles by
the term 4πa(2 2}-[ - c]2+). Here, c(T) denotes the critical density for Bose-Einstein
condensation (for the non-interacting gas), and [ · ]+ = max{ ·, 0} denotes the
positive part. Our bound is uniform in the temperature up to temperatures of the
order of the critical temperature, i.e., T ~ 2/3 or smaller. One of the key ingredients
in the proof is the use of coherent states to extend the method introduced in
[17] for estimating correlations to temperatures below the critical one.
