Renormalization group analysis of $p$-orbital Bose-Einstein condensates in a square optical lattice
Abstract
We investigate the quantum fluctuation effects in the vicinity of the critical point of a -orbital bosonic system in a square optical lattice using Wilsonian renormalization group, where the -orbital bosons condense at nonzero momenta and display rich phases including both time-reversal symmetry invariant and broken BEC states. The one-loop renormalization group analysis generates corrections to the mean-field phase boundaries. We also show the quantum fluctuations in the -orbital system tend to induce the ordered phase but not destroy it via the the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism, which is qualitative different from the ordinary quantum fluctuation corrections to the mean-field phase boundaries in -orbital systems. Finally we discuss the observation of these phenomena in the realistic experiment.
