Abstract: We consider a system of $N$ bosons confined to a thin waveguide, i.e. to a region of space within an $varepsilon$-tube around a curve in $mathbb{R}^3$. We show that when taking simultaneously the NLS limit $Noinfty$ and the limit of strong confinement $varepsilono0$, the time-evolution of such a system starting in a state close to a Bose-Einstein condensate is approximately captured by a non-linear Schr"odinger equation in one dimension. The strength of the non-linearity in this Gross-Pitaevskii type equation depends on the shape of the cross-section of the waveguide, while the "bending" and the "twisting" of the waveguide contribute potential terms. Our analysis is based on an approach to mean-field limits developed by Pickl.
