We compute the ground state phase diagram of the 2d Bose-Hubbard model with anisotropic hopping using quantum Monte Carlo simulations, connecting the 1d to the 2d system. We find that the tip of the lobe lies on a curve controlled by the 1d limit over the full anisotropy range while the universality class is always the same as in the isotropic 2d system. This behavior can be derived analytically from the lowest RG equations and has a form typical for the underlying Kosterlitz-Thouless transition in 1d. We also compute the phase boundary of the Mott lobe for strong anisotropy and compare it to the 1d system. Our calculations shed light on recent cold gas experiments monitoring the dynamics of an expanding cloud.

We investigate the effects of an extended Bose-Hubbard model with a long range hopping term on the Mott insulator-superfluid quantum phase transition. We consider the effects of a power law decaying hopping term and show that the Mott phase is shrinked in the parameters space. We provide an exact solution for one dimensional lattices and then two approximations for higher dimensions, each one valid in a specific range of the power law exponent: a continuum approximation and a discrete one. Finally, we extend these results to a more realistic situation, where the long range hopping term is made by a power law factor and a screening exponential term and study the main effects on the Mott lobes.
Bosonic lattice systems with non-trivial interactions represent an intriguing platform to study exotic phases of matter. Here, we study the effects of extended correlated hopping processes in a system of bosons trapped in a lattice geometry. The interplay between single particle tunneling terms, correlated hopping processes and on-site repulsion is studied by means of a combination of exact diagonalization, strong coupling expansion and cluster mean field theory. We identify a rich ground state phase diagram where, apart the usual Mott and superfluid states, superfluid phases with interesting clustering properties occur.
We use state-of-the-art density matrix renormalization group calculations in the canonical ensemble to determine the phase diagram of the dipolar Bose-Hubbard model on a finite cylinder. We consider several observables that are accessible in typical optical lattice setups and assess how well these quantities perform as order parameters. We find that, especially for small systems, the occupation imbalance is less susceptible to boundary effects than the structure factor in uncovering the presence of a periodic density modulation. By analysing the non-local correlations, we find that the appearance of supersolid order is very sensitive to boundary effects, which may render it difficult to observe in quantum gas lattice experiments with a few tens of particles. Finally, we show how density measurements readily obtainable on a quantum gas microscope allow distinguishing between superfluid and solid phases using unsupervised machine-learning techniques.
The $t$-$J$ model is a standard model of strongly correlated electrons, often studied in the context of high-$T_c$ superconductivity. However, most studies of this model neglect three-site terms, which appear at the same order as the superexchange $J$. As these terms correspond to pair-hopping, they are expected to play an important role in the physics of superconductivity when doped sufficiently far from half-filling. In this paper we present a density matrix renormalisation group study of the one-dimensional $t$-$J$ model with the pair hopping terms included. We demonstrate that that these additional terms radically change the one-dimensional ground state phase diagram, extending the superconducting region at low fillings, while at larger fillings, superconductivity is completely suppressed. We explain this effect by introducing a simplified effective model of repulsive hardcore bosons.
Topological states of matter, such as fractional quantum Hall states, are an active field of research due to their exotic excitations. In particular, ultracold atoms in optical lattices provide a highly controllable and adaptable platform to study such new types of quantum matter. However, finding a clear route to realize non-Abelian quantum Hall states in these systems remains challenging. Here we use the density-matrix renormalization-group (DMRG) method to study the Hofstadter-Bose-Hubbard model at filling factor $ u = 1$ and find strong indications that at $alpha=1/6$ magnetic flux quanta per plaquette the ground state is a lattice analog of the continuum non-Abelian Pfaffian. We study the on-site correlations of the ground state, which indicate its paired nature at $ u = 1$, and find an incompressible state characterized by a charge gap in the bulk. We argue that the emergence of a charge density wave on thin cylinders and the behavior of the two- and three-particle correlation functions at short distances provide evidence for the state being closely related to the continuum Pfaffian. The signatures discussed in this letter are accessible in current cold atom experiments and we show that the Pfaffian-like state is readily realizable in few-body systems using adiabatic preparation schemes.
