Popis:	Within effective field theory we explore the properties of the $d$=3+1 quantum XY model at low temperatures and in weak magnetic or staggered fields. For this parameter regime only few results appear to be known, and furthermore are restricted to one-loop order. In the present study we systematically analyze the thermodynamics of the $d$=3+1 quantum XY model up to three-loop order. In the low-temperature expansion of the free energy density, the free Bose gas term of order $T^4$ receives corrections of order $T^6$ and $T^8$. The discussion also includes the pressure, (staggered) magnetization and susceptibility. In particular, we show how these quantities are influenced by the spin-wave interaction. We then compare our findings with those for the quantum XY model in $d$=2+1. Comment: 34 pages, 9 figures
