Bosonic integer quantum Hall states in topological bands with Chern number two

We study the interacting bosons in topological Hofstadter bands with Chern number two. Using exact diagonalization, we demonstrate that bosonic integer quantum Hall (BIQH) state emerges at integer boson filling factor $\nu=1$ of the lowest Chern band with evidences including a robust spectrum gap and quantized topological Hall conductance two. Moreover, the robustness of BIQH state against different interactions and next-nearest neighbor hopping is investigated. The strong nearest neighbor interaction would favor a charge density wave. When the onsite interaction decreases, BIQH state undergoes a continuous transition into a superfluid state. Without next-nearest neighbor hopping, the ground state is possibly in a metallic Fermi-liquid-like phase.
