We consider dipolar bosons in two tubes of one-dimensional lattices, where the dipoles are aligned to be maximally repulsive and the particle filling fraction is the same in each tube. In the classical limit of zero inter-site hopping, the…
Systems with long-range interactions show a variety of intriguing properties: they typically accommodate many meta-stable states, they can give rise to spontaneous formation of supersolids, and they can lead to counterintuitive…

The devil's staircase is a term used to describe surface or an equilibrium phase diagram in which various ordered facets or phases are infinitely closely packed as a function of some model parameter. A classic example is a 1-D Ising model…
