Abstract

The assumptions and predictions of the Brueckner-Sawada method (including recent refinements) for the derivation of the excitation spectrum of the high-density boson system are examined using Green's-function techniques and a new method of solving the scattering-matrix equation. In the case of the real interaction potential of He4 atoms, the spectrum obtained in our approximation has the correct form but the depletion has a meaningless value. It is pointed out that a probable cause of discrepancies is inconsistent omission of certain self-energy terms.
