We work in the framework of the canonical ensemble, extending the criterion of condensation provided by the canonical particle counting statistics for the zero-momentum state of the uniform ideal gas. The perturbative solution of the crossover equation to lowest order in power of the scattering length yields (Tc - Tc0)/Tc0=-0,93ap 1/3, where Tc0 is the transition temperature of the corresponding ideal Bose gas , a is the scattering length, and p is the particle number density. This is at vaiance with the standard grand canonical prediction of a null shift of the critical temperature in the lowest perturbative order. The non-equevalence of statistical ensemble for the ideal Bose gas is thus confirm (at the lowestperturbative level) also in the presence of interactions.}, language = {en} }
