Phase diagram of bosons in a tripartite lattice—emergence of exotic density ordered phases

Abstract: We investigate the phase diagram of interacting bosons in a tripartite lattice in two dimensions. An analytic computation of the phase diagram in the parameter space defined by the on-site boson–boson repulsion parameter and the chemical potential is done via a second-order strong coupling perturbation theory on the extended Bose–Hubbard model, which is hence supplemented by numerical mean-field calculations. Interesting results emerge in the form of exotic density ordered phases with one-third, two-third and … Show more

“…Subsequently a MFT is employed to compute the ground state eigensolutions for a given lattice site selfconsistently in terms of the order parameters to identify different phases and the procedure is repeated for all sites in the lattice. It may be noted that in the absence of harmonic potential, it would have sufficed to solve for two sites for a bipartite square or a honeycomb lattice and three sites for a tripartite kagome lattice [23,24]. The inhomogeneity caused by the trap, compels the necessity to identify the lattice sites distinctly, thereby explicitly involving the effect of lattice symmetries in the study of the phase diagram.…”

“…It may also be noted that the confining potential renormalizes only the onsite chemical potential and does not affect the validity of the mean field calculations presented here. The corresponding results in the absence of harmonic confinement (V T = 0) have been presented elsewhere [11].…”

“…In presence of trapping potential, it was extended for the inhomogeneous case for a bipartite lattice [10]. In a previous work, we have considered a tripartite lattice and solved extended Bose Hubbard model (EBHM) via mean field theory in the homogeneous case and obtained a rich phase diagram, in which the ground state of the model exhibits SF, different density ordered (DW), supersolid (SS) and MI phases as function of the chemical potential [11].…”

“…We feel such an extended interaction is relevant in the present context. Although the issues are reasonably well studied in the context of scalar particles [40][41][42][43][44], however it has not been explored for systems with internal degrees of freedom. The CDW phase which breaks the crystal translational symmetry and thus have different density modulation corresponding to different sublattices, forms a new crystalline phase which is also an incompressible phase like the MI phase defined by an integer occupancy at each lattice site.…”
