Abstract

We consider the two dimensional disordered Bose gas which present a metallic state at low temperatures. A simple model of an interacting Bose system in a random field is propose to consider the interaction effect on the transition in the metallic state.

Metallic Glass in Two Dimensional Disordered Bose Systems; A Renormalization Group Approach

M. Crişan, D. Bodea, I. Grosu +1 more

We consider the quantum critical properties of a disordered two dimensional Bose gas based on the renormalization group approach. To account for disorder, we consider that the Bose gas interacts with an external random field. The system’s behavior in the critical region of the quantum phase transition is obtained in the universality class z =2 and includes contributions beyond the Gaussian approximation by considering interactions between bosonic degrees of freedom. The evaluation of the system’s conductivity close to the transition point proves the occurrence of a nonzero conductivity (metallic-like) state in the system in the ω =0 and T →0 K limit.

Superfluid/Bose-glass transition in one dimension

Zoran Ristivojević, Aleksandra Petković, Pierre Le Doussal +1 more

We consider a one-dimensional system of interacting bosons in a random potential. At zero temperature, it can be either in the superfluid or in the insulating phase. We study the transition at weak disorder and moderate interaction. Using a systematic approach, we derive the renormalization group equations at two-loop order and discuss the phase diagram. We find the universal form of the correlation functions at the transitions and compute the logarithmic corrections to the main universal power-law behavior. In order to mimic large density fluctuations on a single site, we study a simplified model of disordered two-leg bosonic ladders with correlated disorder across the rung. Contrarily to the single-chain case, the latter system exhibits a transition between a superfluid and a localized phase where the exponents of the correlation functions at the transition do not take universal values.

From Bose glass to many-body localization in a one-dimensional disordered Bose gas

Vincent Grison, N. Dupuis

We determine the finite-temperature phase diagram of a one-dimensional disordered Bose gas using bosonization and the nonperturbative functional renormalization group (RG). We discuss two different scenarios, based on distinct truncations of the effective action. In the first scenario, the Bose glass is destabilized at any finite temperature, giving rise to a normal fluid. Nevertheless, one can distinguish a low-temperature glassy regime, where disorder plays an important role on intermediate length and time scales, from a high-temperature regime, where disorder becomes irrelevant. In the second scenario, below a temperature $T_c$, the RG flow exhibits a singularity at a finite value of the RG momentum scale. We propose that this singularity signals a lack of thermalization and the existence of a localized phase for $T

Superfluid–Bose-glass transition in two dimensions at T = 0: Analytic solution of a mode-coupling toy model

E. V Zenkov

Analytic expression for the memory function and the optical conductivity of the two-dimensional Bose gas with logarithmic interaction at T = 0 in the presence of point-like impurities is obtained within the mode-coupling approximation. Depending on the value of a dimensionless combination of the model parameters proportional to the strength of the impurity potential, two different phases are distinguished, viz the disordered superfluid and insulator (Bose glass), separated by an intermediate (quasi)metal state.

Condensation temperature of interacting Bose gases with and without disorder

O. Zobay

The momentum-shell renormalization group (RG) is used to study the condensation of interacting Bose gases without and with disorder. First of all, for the homogeneous disorder-free Bose gas the interaction-induced shifts in the critical temperature and chemical potential are determined up to second order in the scattering length. The approach does not make use of dimensional reduction and is thus independent of previous derivations. Secondly, the RG is used together with the replica method to study the interacting Bose gas with delta-correlated disorder. The flow equations are derived and found to reduce, in the high-temperature limit, to the RG equations of the classical Landau-Ginzburg model with random-exchange defects. The random fixed point is used to calculate the condensation temperature under the combined influence of particle interactions and disorder.

Disordered Quantum Solids

Thierry Giamarchi, E. Orignac

Due to the peculiar non-fermi liquid of one dimensional systems, disorder has particularly strong effects. We show that such systems belong to the more general class of disordered quantum solids. We discuss the physics of such disordered interacting systems and the methods that allows to treat them. In addition to, by now standard renormalization group methods, We explain how a simple variational approach allows to treat these problems even in case when the RG fails. We discuss various physical realizations of such disordered quantum solids both in one and higher dimensions (Wigner crystal, Bose glass). We investigate in details the interesting example of a disordered Mott insulator and argue that intermediate disorder can lead to a novel phase, the Mott glass, intermediate between a Mott and and Anderson insulator.
