Competing Orders in two-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures

Abstract

Using a functional renormalization group approach we study the zero temperature phase diagram of two-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures of ultra-cold atoms in optical lattices, in the limit when the velocity of bosonic condensate fluctuations are much larger than the Fermi velocity. For spin-1/2 fermions we obtain a phase diagram, which shows a competition of pairing phases of various orbital symmetry (ss, pp, and dd) and antiferromagnetic order. We determine the value of the gaps of various phases close to half-filling, and identify subdominant orders as well as short-range fluctuations from the RG flow. For spinless fermions we find that p-wave pairing dominates the phase diagram.
