Single vortex in a 2D optical lattices

We consider a single vortex in a system of bosons trapped in socalled strictly 2D optical lattices. The system is treated in term of the Slave Boson representation for hard-core bosons which is valid in both dilute and dense limit. This model predicts almost the same result as the Gross-Pitaevskii approach using the same optical lattice model in the dilute limit PACS number(s): 03.75.Fi, 05.30J...

Vortex-Peierls states in optical lattices.

We show that vortices, induced in cold atom superfluids in optical lattices, may order in a novel vortex-Peierls ground state. In such a state vortices do not form a simple lattice but arrange themselves in clusters, within which the vortices are partially delocalized, tunneling between classically degenerate configurations. We demonstrate that this exotic quantum many-body state is selected by...

Rotating states for trapped bosons in an optical lattice

Rotational states for trapped bosons in an optical lattice are studied in the framework of the Hubbard model. Critical frequencies are calculated and the main parameter regimes are identified. Transitions are observed from edge superfluids to vortex lattices with Mott insulating cores, and subsequently to lattices of interstitial vortices. The former transition coincides with the Mott transitio...

Vortex dynamics and Hall conductivity of hard-core bosons

Magnetotransport of hard-core bosons is studied using an XXZ quantum spin model representation, appropriately gauged on the torus to allow for an external magnetic field. We find strong lattice effects near half filling. An effective quantum mechanical description of the vortex degrees of freedom is derived. Using semiclassical and numerical analysis we compute the vortex-hopping energy tV, whi...

Vortex solutions in nonabelian Higgs theories

A new class of vortex solutions is found in SU(2) gauge theories with two adjoint representation Higgs bosons. Implications of these new solutions and their possible connection with Center Gauge fixed pure gauge theories are discussed. PACS numbers: 11.15Kc, 11.15Ha, 12.38Aw The classification of vortex solutions in SU(N) gauge theories requires the investigation of mapping rotations around the...
