Effect of dominant three-body interaction to the hard-core boson Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice

Abstract

The effect of dominant three-body interaction to the hard-core boson Hubbard model is studied on a two-dimensional square lattice. In terms of the quantum Monte Carlo method, a ? = 2/3 solid phase is shown explicitly with the coexistence of a charge-density wave and a bond-order wave appearing due to the presence of the dominant three-body interaction. For the strong three-body interaction, the ? = 2/3 solid phase appears between superfluid phases and shrinks as the strength of the three-body interaction decreases, forming a lobe structure in the phase diagram. For weak three-body interactions, the superfluid phase exists for the whole range of hard-core densities except the full filled case, where the system is a Mott insulator. Our results may be realized in cold-atom experiments.

Effect of dominant three-body interaction in two-dimensional square lattice

Ying Liang, Huaiming Guo

The effect of dominant three-body interaction to hard-core boson Hubbard model is studied on a two-dimensional square lattice. In terms of quantum Monte Carlo method, it is shown explicitly a ρ = 2/3 solid phase with coexistence of charge-density-wave and bond orders appears due to the presence of the dominant three-body interaction. For strong three-body interaction, the ρ = 2/3 solid phase appears between superfluid phases and shrinks as decreasing the strength of the three-body interaction, forming a lobe structure in the phase diagram. For weak three-body interactions, superfluid phase exists for the whole range of hard-core densities except the full filled case, where the system is a Mott insulator.

Phase diagram of one-dimensional hard-core bosons with three-body interactions

Barbara Capogrosso-Sansone, Stefan Weßel, Hans Peter Büchler +2 more

We determine the phase diagram of a one-dimensional system of hard-core lattice bosons interacting via repulsive three-body interactions by analytic methods and extensive quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Such three-body interactions can be derived from a microscopic theory for polar molecules trapped in an optical lattice. Depending on the strength of the interactions and the particle density, we find superfluid and solid phases, the latter appearing at an unconventional filling of the lattice and displaying a coexistence of charge-density wave and bond orders.

Cold atoms on a two-dimensional square optical lattice with an alternating potential

Huaiming Guo, Yu-Chuan Wen, Shiping Feng

The cold atom on a two-dimensional square optical lattice is studied within the hard-core boson Hubbard model with an alternating potential. In terms of the quantum Monte Carlo method, it is shown explicitly that a supersolid phase emerges due to the presence of the alternating potential. For the weak alternating potential, the supersolid state appears for the whole range of hard-core boson densities except the half-filling case, where the system is a Mott insulator. However, for the strong alternating potential, besides the supersolid and Mott insulating states, a charge-density wave phase appears.

Phase stability in the two-dimensional anisotropic boson Hubbard Hamiltonian

Tao Ying, G. G. Batrouni, V. G. Rousseau +4 more

The two-dimensional square lattice hard-core boson Hubbard model with near-neighbor interactions has a ``checkerboard'' charge density wave insulating phase at half filling and sufficiently large intersite repulsion. When doped, rather than forming a supersolid phase in which long-range charge density wave correlations coexist with a condensation of superfluid defects, the system instead phase separates. However, it is known that there are other lattice geometries and interaction patterns for which such coexistence takes place. In this paper we explore the possibility that anisotropic hopping or anisotropic near-neighbor repulsion might similarly stabilize the square lattice supersolid. By considering the charge density wave structure factor and superfluid density for different ratios of interaction strength and hybridization in the $\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{x}$ and $\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{y}$ directions, we conclude that phase separation still occurs.

Quantum phases of hard-core bosons on two-dimensional lattices with anisotropic dipole-dipole interaction

Takahiro Ohgoe, Takafumi Suzuki, Naoki Kawashima

By using an unbiased quantum Monte Carlo method, we investigate the hard-core Bose-Hubbard model on a square lattice with the anisotropic dipole-dipole interaction. To study the effect of the anisotropy, dipole moments are assumed to be polarized in the $y$ direction on the two-dimensional $xy$ plane. To perform efficient simulations of long-range interacting systems, we use the worm algorithm with an $O(N)$ Monte Carlo method. We obtain the ground-state phase diagram that includes a superfluid phase and a striped solid phase at half-filling as two main phases. In addition to these two main phases, we find a small region where there are multiple plateaus in the particle density for small hopping amplitudes. In this region, the number of plateaus increases as the system size increases. This indicates the appearance of numerous competing ground states due to frustrated interactions. In our simulations, we find no evidence of a supersolid phase.

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.
