Bose–Hubbard model with occupation-dependent parameters

Abstract: We study the ground-state properties of ultracold bosons in an optical lattice in the regime of strong interactions. The system is described by a nonstandard Bose-Hubbard model with both occupation-dependent tunneling and on-site interaction. We find that for sufficiently strong coupling the system features a phasetransition from a Mott insulator with one particle per site to a superfluid of spatially extended particle pairs living on top of the Mott background -instead of the usual transition to a superfluid … Show more

“…Similarly, often only the on-site interactions terms U αβγ δ ij kl for (i,j,k,l) = (i,i,i,i) are taken into account since other integrals are significantly smaller. Recently however, it has been stressed [24,26,27,31] that contributions U αβγ δ ij kl for (i,j,k,l) = (i,i,i,j ) (up to a permutation) may not be easily dismissed. They have a character of density-dependent tunnelings, and they may compete with standard tunnelings (especially for deep lattices, strong interactions, or high density), leading to significant measurable effects.…”
