Uniform pumped polariton condensate ($n_{\infty }=\alpha /\beta$)

For the cubic complex Ginzburg–Landau equation with $\alpha ,\beta >0$, $\Psi =\sqrt{\alpha /\beta }{e}^{-i\mu t}$ is spatially uniform, with $\mu =g\alpha /\beta -s$. In the reservoir reduction of a polariton condensate, its pump threshold is $P_{\mathrm{th}}={\gamma }_C{\gamma }_R/R_R$ and its number density is $({\gamma }_R/R_R)(1-P_{\mathrm{th}}/P)$. The full two-field homogeneous model instead gives $(P-P_{\mathrm{th}})/{\gamma }_C$. These agree near threshold only to the expansion's accuracy. Existence of the homogeneous solution does not imply stability for arbitrary interaction coefficients.
