Motivated by the recent experimental realization of the Haldane model by ultracold fermions in an optical lattice, we investigate phase diagrams of the hard-core Bose-Hubbard model on a honeycomb lattice. This model is closely related with a spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic (AF) quantum spin model. Nearest-neighbor (NN) hopping amplitude is positive and it prefers an AF configurations of phases of Bose-Einstein condensates. On the other hand, an amplitude of the next-NN hopping depends on an angle variable as in the Haldane model. Phase diagrams are obtained by means of an extended path-integral Monte-Carlo simulations. Besides the AF state, a 120$^o$-order state, there appear other phases including a Bose metal in which no long-range orders exist.

We study the attractive fermionic Hubbard model on a honeycomb lattice using determinantal quantum Monte Carlo simulations. By increasing the interaction strength U (relative to the hopping parameter t) at half-filling and zero temperature, the system undergoes a quantum phase transition at 5.0 < U_c/t < 5.1 from a semi-metal to a phase displaying simultaneously superfluid behavior and density order. Doping away from half-filling, and increasing the interaction strength at finite but low temperature T, the system always appears to be a superfluid exhibiting a crossover between a BCS and a molecular regime. These different regimes are analyzed by studying the spectral function. The formation of pairs and the emergence of phase coherence throughout the sample are studied as U is increased and T is lowered.
We present an unbiased numerical density-matrix renormalization group study of the one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model supplemented by nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction and bond dimerization. It places the emphasis on the determination of the ground-state phase diagram and shows that, besides dimerized Mott and density-wave insulating phases, an intermediate symmetry-protected topological Haldane insulator emerges at weak Coulomb interactions for filling factor one, which disappears, however, when the dimerization becomes too large. Analyzing the critical behavior of the model, we prove that the phase boundaries of the Haldane phase to Mott insulator and density-wave states belong to the Gaussian and Ising universality classes with central charges $c=1$ and $c=1/2$, respectively, and merge in a tricritical point. Interestingly we can demonstrate a direct Ising quantum phase transition between the dimerized Mott and density-wave phases above the tricritical point. The corresponding transition line terminates at a critical end point that belongs to the universality class of the dilute Ising model with $c=7/10$. At even stronger Coulomb interactions the transition becomes first order.
Motivated by recent experimental processes, we systemically investigate strongly correlated spin-1 ultracold bosons trapped in a three-dimensional optical lattice in the presence of an external magnetic field. Based on a recently developed bosonic dynamical mean-field theory (BDMFT), we map out complete phase diagrams of the system for both antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic interactions, where various phases are found as a result of the interplay of spin-dependent interaction and quadratic Zeeman energy. For antiferromagnetic interactions, the system demonstrates competing magnetic orders, including nematic, spin-singlet and ferromagnetic insulating phase, depending on longitudinal magnetization, whereas, for ferromagnetic case, a ferromagnetic-to-nematic-insulating phase transition is observed for small quadratic Zeeman energy, and the insulating phase demonstrates the nematic order for large Zeeman energy. Interestingly, at low magnetic field and finite temperature, we find an abnormal multi-step condensation of the strongly correlated superfluid, i.e. the critical condensing temperature of the $m_F=-1$ component with antiferromagnetic interactions demonstrates an increase with longitudinal magnetization, while, for ferromagnetic case, the Zeeman component $m_F = 0$ demonstrates a local minimum for the critical condensing temperature, in contrast to weakly interacting cases.

In this paper, we consider the bosonic t-J model, which describes two-component hard-core bosons with a nearest-neighbor (NN) pseudo-spin interaction and a NN hopping. To study phase diagram of this model, we derive effective field theories for low-energy excitations. In order to represent the hard-core nature of bosons, we employ a slave-particle representation. In the path-integral quantization, we first integrate our the radial degrees of freedom of each boson field and obtain the low-energy effective field theory of phase degrees of freedom of each boson field and an easy-plane pseudo-spin. Coherent condensates of the phases describe, e.g., a magnetic order of the pseudo-spin, superfluidity of hard-core bosons, etc. This effective field theory is a kind of extended quantum XY model, and its phase diagram can be investigated precisely by means of the Monte-Carlo simulations. We then apply a kind of Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation to the quantum XY model and obtain the second-version of the effective field theory, which is composed of fields describing the pseudo-spin degrees of freedom and boson fields of the original two-component hard-core bosons. As application of the effective-field theory approach, we consider the bosonic t-J model on the square lattice and also on the triangular lattice, and compare the obtained phase diagrams with the results of the numerical studies. We also study low-energy excitations rather in detail in the effective field theory. Finally we consider the bosonic t-J model on a stacked triangular lattice and obtain its phase diagram. We compare the obtained phase diagram with that of the effective field theory to find close resemblance.
In this paper, we analyze the quantum phases of multiple component Bose-Hubbard model in optical superlattices, using a mean-field method, the decoupling approximation. We find that the phase diagrams exhibit complected patterns and regions with various Charge Density Wave (CDW) for both one- and two- component cases. We also analyze the effective spin dynamics for the two-component case in strong-coupling region at unit filling, and show the possible existence of a Spin Density Wave (SDW) order.
