Extended Bose—Hubbard model with pair hopping on triangular lattice
Yan-Cheng Wang, Wan-Zhou Zhang, Hui Shao, Wenan Guo
Abstract
We study systematically an extended Bose—Hubbard model on the triangular lattice by means of a meanfield method based on the Gutzwiller ansatz. Pair hopping terms are explicitly included and a three-body constraint is applied. The zero-temperature phase diagram and a variety of quantum phase transitions are investigated in great detail. In particular, we show the existence and the stability of the pair supersolid phase.
