36. As future work the influence of these scattering events could be included, e.g., using the linearized formalism presented in Ref..
37. In experiments this observable is integrated over the system volume to improve the signal strength.

56. Coupling between sites still remains through the mean-field parameters αj.
57. We introduce μ into this formalism to fix the mean number of particles per site.

62. In terms of the notation of Ref., our condensate orbital is the first order cumulant, M (x, x′) corresponds to the pair function (a second order cumulant), and G(1) (x, x′) corresponds to the full one-body density matrix, with the noncondensate density matrix G(1) (x, x′) - Φ0 (x) Φ0* (x′) corresponding to the other second order cumulant.
