Based on the self-consistent Hartree–Fock approximation, the nonstationary equation is obtained for the one-particle wave function describing the Bose–Einstein condensate in a rarefied gas of spin-zero bosons. A rarefied gas of bosons is exposed to the static external field, which ensures its finite ground state. The derived equation allows one to correctly determine the ground state energy in the stationary case.
