Abstract

In this Brief Report, we study phase structure of a system of hard-core bosons with a nearest-neighbor (NN) repulsive interaction in a stacked triangular lattice. The Hamiltonian of the system contains two parameters, one of which is the hopping amplitude $t$ between NN sites and the other is the NN repulsion $V$. We investigate the system by means of the Monte Carlo simulations and clarify the low- and high-temperature phase diagrams. Phase diagrams contain various phases, e.g., solid, superfluid, supersolid, and phase-separated states. The result is compared with the phase diagram of the two-dimensional system in a triangular lattice at vanishing temperature.

Bosonict–JModel in a Stacked Triangular Lattice and Its Phase Diagram

Keisuke Kataoka, Yoshihito Kuno, Ikuo Ichinose

In this paper, we study phase diagram of a system of two-component hard-core bosons with nearest-neighbor (NN) pseudo-spin antiferromagnetic (AF) interactions in a stacked triangular lattice. Hamiltonian of the system contains three parameters one of which is the hopping amplitude $t$ between NN sites, and the other two are the NN pseudo-spin exchange interaction $J$ and the one that measures anisotropy of pseudo-spin interactions. We investigate the system by means of the Monte-Carlo simulations and clarify the low-temperature phase diagram. In particular, we are interested in how the competing orders, i.e., AF order and superfluidity, are realized, and also whether supersolid forms as a result of hole doping into the state of the $\sqrt{3}\times \sqrt{3}$ pseudo-spin pattern with the $120^o$ structure.

Two-species hard-core bosons on the triangular lattice: A quantum Monte Carlo study

Jian-Ping Lv, Qing‐Hu Chen, Youjin Deng

Using worm-type quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate bosonic mixtures on a triangular lattice of two species of bosons, which interact via nearest-neighbor intraspecies ($V$) and on-site interspecies ($U$) repulsions. For the case of symmetric hopping amplitude (${t}_{A}/V={t}_{B}/V$) and $U/V=1$, we determine a rich ground-state phase diagram that contains double-solid, double-superfluid, supersolid (SS), solid-superfluid (solid-SF), and counterflow supersolid (CSS) states. The SS, solid-SF, and CSS states exhibit spontaneous symmetry breaking among the three sublattices of the triangular lattice and between the two species, which leads to a nonzero crystalline density wave order in each species. We, furthermore, show that the CSS and the SS states are present for ${t}_{A}/V\ensuremath{\ne}{t}_{B}/V$, and the latter even survives up to the ${t}_{A}/V\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$ or ${t}_{B}/V\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$ limit. The effects induced by the variation of $U/V$ and by the imbalance of particle numbers of the two species are also explored.

Supersolid phase transitions for hard-core bosons on a triangular lattice

Xue‐Feng Zhang, Raoul Dillenschneider, Yue Yu +1 more

Hard-core bosons on a triangular lattice with nearest-neighbor repulsion are a prototypical example of a system with supersolid behavior on a lattice. We show that in this model the physical origin of the supersolid phase can be understood quantitatively and analytically by constructing quasiparticle excitations of defects that are moving on an ordered background. The location of the solid to supersolid phase transition line is predicted from the effective model for both positive and negative (frustrated) hopping parameters. For positive hopping parameters the calculations agree very accurately with numerical quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The numerical results indicate that the supersolid to superfluid transition is first order.

Three-body interactions on a triangular lattice

Xue‐Feng Zhang, Yu-Chuan Wen, Yue Yu

We analyze the hard-core Bose-Hubbard model with both three-body and nearest-neighbor repulsions on a triangular lattice. The phase diagram is achieved by means of the semiclassical approximation and a quantum Monte Carlo simulation. For a system with only three-body interactions, both the supersolid phase and the one-third solid disappear while the two-thirds solid is stable. As the thermal behavior of the bosons with nearest-neighbor repulsion, the solid and the superfluid undergo the three-state Potts- and Kosterlitz--Thouless-type phase transitions, respectively. In a system with both frustrated nearest-neighbor two-body and three-body interactions, the supersolid and one-third solid are revived. By tuning the strength of the three-body interactions, the phase diagram is distorted because the one-third solid and the supersolid are suppressed.

Phase diagram of dipolar hard-core bosons on a honeycomb lattice

Takashi Nakafuji, Takeshi Ito, Yuya Nagamori +1 more

In this paper, we study phase diagrams of dipolar hard-core boson gases on a honeycomb lattice. The system is described by the Haldane-Bose-Hubbard model with complex hopping amplitudes and nearest-neighbor repulsion. By using the slave-particle representation of the hard-core bosons and also the path-integral quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate the system and show that the systems have a rich phase diagram. There are Mott, superfluid, chiral superfluid, and sublattice chiral superfluid phases as well as the density-wave phase. We also found a coexisting phase of superfluid and chiral superfluid. Critical behaviors of the phase transitions are also clarified.

Effective field theories for two-component repulsive bosons on lattice and their phase diagrams

Yoshihito Kuno, Keisuke Kataoka, Ikuo Ichinose

In this paper, we consider the bosonic $t$-$J$ model, which describes two-component hard-core bosons with a nearest-neighbor (NN) pseudospin interaction and a NN hopping. To study the phase diagram of this model, we derive effective field theories for low-energy excitations. In order to represent the hard-core nature of bosons, we employ a slave-particle representation. In the path-integral quantization, we first integrate out the radial degrees of freedom of each boson field and obtain the low-energy effective field theory of phase degrees of freedom of each boson field and an easy-plane pseudospin. Coherent condensates of the phases describe, e.g., a ``magnetic order'' of the pseudospin, superfluidity of hard-core bosons, etc. This effective field theory is a kind of extended quantum $XY$ model, and its phase diagram can be investigated precisely by means of the Monte Carlo simulations. We then apply a kind of Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation to the quantum $XY$ model and obtain the second version of the effective field theory, which is composed of fields describing the pseudospin degrees of freedom and boson fields of the original two-component hard-core bosons. As an application of the effective-field theory approach, we consider the bosonic $t$-$J$ model on the square lattice and also on the triangular lattice, and compare the obtained phase diagrams with the results of the numerical studies. We also study low-energy excitations rather in detail in the effective field theory. Finally, we consider the bosonic $t$-$J$ model on a stacked triangular lattice and obtain its phase diagram. We compare the obtained phase diagram with that of the effective field theory to find close resemblance.
