Phase diagram of the Bose-Hubbard model on a checkerboard superlattice

M. Iskin

We study the effects of an artificial gauge field on the ground-state phases of the Bose-Hubbard model on a checkerboard superlattice in two dimensions, including the superfluid phase and the Mott and alternating Mott insulators. First, we discuss the single-particle Hofstadter problem, and show that the presence of a checkerboard superlattice gives rise to a magnetic flux-independent energy gap in the excitation spectrum. Then, we consider the many-particle problem, and derive an analytical mean-field expression for the superfluid-Mott and superfluid--alternating-Mott insulator phase transition boundaries. Finally, since the phase diagram of the Bose-Hubbard model on a checkerboard superlattice is in many ways similar to that of the extended Bose-Hubbard model, we comment on the effects of magnetic field on the latter model, and derive an analytical mean-field expression for the superfluid-insulator phase transition boundaries as well.

Bose—Hubbard Model in Checkerboard Superlattices with a Magnetic Field

Beibing Huang, Shaolong Wan

In this paper we investigate classical and quantum phase transitions of Bose—Hubbard model in checkerboard superlattices with a magnetic field at the mean-field level. By analyzing stability of normal state phase boundaries are obtained analytically for zero and finite temperature in a unified theoretical frame and easily extended to the situation without the magnetic field. All results illustrate that the introduction of the magnetic field enhances the stability of normal state and Mott insulator. In addition we also note that the critical hopping term presents an oscillating behavior inversely following the upper boundary of Hofstadter butterfly.
