On the weak separation limit of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate

This paper deals with the study of the behaviour of the wave functions of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate in the case of weak segregation. This amounts to the study of the asymptotic behaviour of a heteroclinic connection in a conservative Hamiltonian system of two coupled second order ODE’s, as the strength of the coupling tends to its infimum. For this purpose, we apply geometric singular perturbation theory.
