Chaos induced breakdown of Bose-Hubbard modeling

Quantum Gases 2020-01-29 v2 Chaotic Dynamics

Abstract

We show that the Bose-Hubbard approximation fails due to the emergence of chaos, even when excited modes are far detuned and the standard validity condition is satisfied. This is formally identical to the Melnikov-Arnold analysis of the stochastic pump model. Previous numerical observations of Bose-Hubbard breakdown are precisely reproduced by our simple model and can be attributed to many body enhancement of chaos.
