We consider $N$ non-relativistic bosons interacting pairwise through a positive potential. The famous Bogoliubov theory gives a prediction for the ground state energy of this system. In this talk, I will describe a recent proof of the so-called Lee-Huang-Yang term, which is the second term in the energy expansion in the limit of dilute systems.

This is based on joint work with J. P. Solovej.
