Summary:The exploration of dimensional crossover carries profound fundamental significance, serving as a crucial bridge in comprehending the remarkable disparities observed in transitional phenomena across the two distinct dimensions of a physical system. The prevalent strategy for manipulating the dimensionality involves meticulously controlling the external trapping geometry, thereby restricting the degrees of freedom of the kinetic energy from three-dimensional (3D) to lower-dimensional spaces, while maintaining the 3D nature of the interaction energy degrees of freedom. The aim of this work is to introduce an innovative scenario to achieve dimensional crossover, characterized by lower-D nature of both the kinetic and the interaction energy degrees of freedom. To accomplish this objective, we delve deeply into the realm of a 2D optically trapped Bose gas, focusing specifically on its finite-range interaction. Our emphasis lies in exploring the lattice-induced dimensional crossover from full 3D to 1D in both kinetic and interaction terms. Utilizing the functional path integral method, we derive the equation of states of the model system, encompassing crucial quantities such as the ground state energy and quantum depletion. These equations enable us to analyze the combined effects of finite range interaction and an optical lattice on quantum fluctuations of the BEC system. Notably, our analytical findings reconcile the Lee-Huang-Yang (LHY) correction to the ground state energy in 3D and Lieb-Liniger (LL) ones in 1D limit, thereby providing fresh insights into the intriguing disparities between LHY and LL corrections.
