12. The Gaussian variational model stems from nonlinear optics, where an equation that is mathematically identical to the GPE was used to describe the propagation of light pulses.

21. Please notice that all these works addressed the dynamics of a Bose-condensed gas close to its ground state. For a comprehensive account, from both an experimental and theoretical viewpoint, of excited states such as solitons, vortices and alike we refer to the recent reviews [3,4] and references therein
