We describe a dilute, weakly interacting Bose gas in presence of a strong δ-correlated disorder potential, thus improving the perturbational approach of Ref. [1]. To this end, we treat the disorder with the replica method and derive a Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov mean-field theory which generalizes the Hartree-Fock theory recently developed in Ref. [2]. The resulting condensate and superfluid density depend on the strengths of the disorder and the two-particle interaction. In particular, we focus on the location of a quantum phase transition between a superfluid and a Bose glass phase at zero temperature for a finite value of the disorder strength.
