Abstract

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.

Phase diagrams of Bose-Hubbard model and antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 models on a honeycomb lattice

Takashi Nakafuji, Ikuo Ichinose

Motivated by the recent experimental realization of the Haldane model by ultracold fermions in an optical lattice, we investigate phase diagrams of the hard-core Bose-Hubbard model on a honeycomb lattice. This model is closely related with a spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic (AF) quantum spin model. Nearest-neighbor (NN) hopping amplitude is positive and it prefers an AF configuration of phases of Bose-Einstein condensates. On the other hand, an amplitude of the next-NN hopping depends on an angle variable as in the Haldane model. Phase diagrams are obtained by means of an extended path-integral Monte Carlo simulation. Besides the AF state, a ${120}^{\ensuremath{\circ}}$-order state, there appear other phases including a Bose metal in which no long-range orders exist.

Phase diagram of interacting bosons on the honeycomb lattice

Stefan Weßel

We study the ground-state properties of repulsively interacting bosons on the honeycomb lattice using large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations. In the hard-core limit, the half-filled system develops long-ranged diagonal order for sufficiently strong nearest-neighbor repulsion. This staggered solid melts at a first-order quantum phase transition into the superfluid phase, without the presence of any intermediate supersolid phase. Within the superfluid phase, both the superfluid density and the compressibility exhibit local minima near the particle (hole) density of one quarter, while the density and the condensate fraction show inflection points in this region. Relaxing the hard-core constraint, supersolid phases emerge for soft-core bosons. The suppression of the superfluid density is found to persist for sufficiently large, finite on-site repulsion.

Phase diagrams of the Bose-Hubbard model and the Haldane-Bose-Hubbard model with complex hopping amplitudes

Yoshihito Kuno, Takashi Nakafuji, Ikuo Ichinose

In this paper, we study Bose-Hubbard models on square and honeycomb lattices with complex hopping amplitudes, which are feasible by recent experiments of cold atomic gases in optical lattices. To clarify phase diagrams, we use extended quantum Monte Carlo simulations (eQMC). For the system on the square lattice, the complex hopping is realized by an artificial magnetic field. We found that vortex-solid states form for certain set of magnetic field, i.e., the magnetic field with the flux quanta per plaquette $f=p/q$, where $p$ and $q$ are co-prime natural numbers. For the system on the honeycomb lattice, we add the next-nearest-neighbor complex hopping. The model is a bosonic analog of the Haldane-Hubbard model. By means of eQMC, we study the model with both weak and strong onsite repulsions. Numerical study shows that the model has a rich phase diagram. We also found that in the system defined on the honeycomb lattice of the cylinder geometry, an interesting edge state appears.

Phase structure of repulsive hard-core bosons in a stacked triangular lattice

Hidetoshi Ozawa, Ikuo Ichinose

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.

Extended Bose-Hubbard model on a honeycomb lattice

Jing Yu Gan, Yu Chuan Wen, Jinwu Ye +3 more

We study the extended Bose-Hubbard model on a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice by using large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We present the ground-state phase diagrams for both the hard-core and the soft-core bosons. For the hard-core case, the transition between the $\ensuremath{\rho}=1∕2$ solid and the superfluid is first order, and the supersolid state is unstable toward phase separation. For the soft-core case, due to the presence of multiple occupation, a stable particle-induced supersolid (SS-p) phase emerges when $1∕2<\ensuremath{\rho}<1$. The transition from the solid at $\ensuremath{\rho}=1∕2$ to the SS-p phase is second order with the superfluid density scaling as ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{s}\ensuremath{\sim}\ensuremath{\rho}\ensuremath{-}1∕2$. The SS-p phase has the same diagonal order as the solid at $\ensuremath{\rho}=1∕2$. As the chemical potential increases further, the SS-p phase turns into a solid where two bosons occupy each site of one sublattice through a first-order transition. We also calculate the critical exponents of the transition between the $\ensuremath{\rho}=1∕2$ solid and superfluid at the Heisenberg point for the hard-core case. We find the dynamical critical exponent $z=0.15$, which is smaller than results obtained on smaller lattices. This indicates that $z$ approaches zero in the thermodynamic limit, and thus the transition is also first order even at the Heisenberg point.

Finite-Temperature Phase Diagram of Hard-Core Bosons in Two Dimensions

Guido Schmid, Synge Todo, Matthias Troyer +1 more

We determine the finite-temperature phase diagram of the square lattice hard-core boson Hubbard model with nearest neighbor repulsion using quantum Monte Carlo simulations. This model is equivalent to an anisotropic spin-1/2 XXZ model in a magnetic field. We present the rich phase diagram with a first order transition between a solid and superfluid phase, instead of a previously conjectured supersolid and a tricritical end point to phase separation. Unusual reentrant behavior with ordering upon increasing the temperature is found, similar to the Pomeranchuk effect in 3He.
