Dynamical Mean-Field Theory for Bosons and Bose-Fermi Mixtures

We give a detailed discussion of the recently developed generalized dynamical mean-field theory (GDMFT) for a mixture of bosonic and fermionic particles. We show that this method is nonperturbative and exact in infinite dimensions, and reliably describes the full range from weak to strong coupling. Like in conventional dynamical mean-field theory, the small parameter is $1/z$ , where $z$ is the lattice coordination number. We apply the GDMFT scheme to a mixture of spinless fermions and bosons in an optical lattice. We investigate the possibility of a supersolid phase, focusing on the case of 1/2 filling for the fermions and 3/2 filling for the bosons.We give a detailed discussion of the recently developed generalized dynamical mean-field theory (GDMFT) for a mixture of bosonic and fermionic particles.

We consider a mixture of interacting bosons and fermions in optical lattices described by the Bose–Fermi Hubbard Hamiltonian. To treat bosonic degrees of freedom, we use a generalized dynamical mean field theory (GDMFT). By combining the GDMFT with the numerical renormalization group method, we revisit the zero-temperature phase diagram with particular emphasis on many-body effects in a supersolid state and discuss the origin of an anomalous peak structure emerging in the density of states for fermions.We consider a mixture of interacting bosons and fermions in optical lattices described by the Bose–Fermi Hubbard Hamiltonian.
