In this short review we present our recent results concerning the rotation of atomic Bose-Einstein condensates confined in quadratic or quartic potentials, and give an overview of the field. We first describe the procedure used to set an atomic gas in rotation and briefly discuss the physics of cond

The kinetics of nonequilibrium Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) are considered within the framework of the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation. A systematic derivation is given for weak small-scale perturbations of a steady confined condensate state. This approach combines a wavepacket WKB description wit
The basic physics of a dilute trapped Bose gas reflects both the interparticle interactions and the quantum degeneracy. At low temperatures, nearly all the particles are in the condensate. The corresponding macroscopic wave function obeys the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation that describes t
In light of the recent experimental observation of Bose-Einstein condensates held in 1D, 2D and 3D optical lattice potentials, we derive several families of exact solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation from some balance conditions between the optical potentials and interaction energies. The exac
