Bose–Einstein distribution as a problem of analytic number theory: The case of less than two degrees of freedom

Аннотация

The problem of finding the number and the most likely shape of solutions of the system \(\sum\nolimits_{j = 0}^\infty {{\lambda _j}{n_j}} \leqslant M,\;\sum\nolimits_{j = 1}^\infty {{n_j}} = N\), where λ_j,M,N > 0 and N is an integer, as M,N →∞, can naturally be interpreted as a problem of analytic number theory. We solve this problem for the case in which the counting function of λ_j is of the order of λ^d/2, where d, the number of degrees of freedom, is less than two.
