    In many cases the systems of trapped cold atoms are ideal for studying the foundations of quantum many-body theories -- theoretical calculations can be compared with experimental results directly. The experiments can be made in both equilibrium and nonequilibrium states, but the unstable phenomena of the condensate are the main area of interest in this paper because they allow to formulate the unstable quantum many-body systems (as a still open problem) and nonequilibrium processes accompany the instability in thermal situation. Such an instability is characterized by the eigenvalue of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations of the time dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation. In this paper we have a study of a stationary condensate to a case of time-dependent condensate with extension that involves drastic temporal change of the quasiparticle picture. The paper consists of 5 sections. The second one is a presentation of solutions of TDBdG equations to maintain the time-dependent quasiparticle picture. In Section 3, considerations about the nonequilibrium system with doubled number of degrees of freedom are presented. This is done basing on three conditions: {\parindent=7mm \begin{itemize}\item[(i)] it provides the transport equation which determines the temporal evolution of the unperturbed number distribution; \item[(ii)] it gives the energy renormalization for \(\delta T(x)\); \item[(iii)] it gives the self-consistent criterion for dividing the original field operator into two. \end{itemize}} Section 4 shows the numerical results for experiments and the last section gives a summary.
