Exact Analysis of an Interacting Bose Gas. I. The General Solution and the Ground State

A gas of one-dimensional Bose particles interacting via a repulsive delta-function potential has been solved exactly. All the eigenfunctions can be found explicitly and the energies are given by the solutions of a transcendental equation. The problem has one nontrivial coupling constant, $\ensuremath{\gamma}$. When $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ is small, Bogoliubov's perturbation theory is seen to be valid. In this paper, we explicitly calculate the ground-state energy as a function of $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ and show that it is analytic for all $\ensuremath{\gamma}$, except $\ensuremath{\gamma}=0$. In Part II, we discuss the excitation spectrum and show that it is most convenient to regard it as a double spectrum---not one as is ordinarily supposed.
