Spectrum of boson fields and two-point correlators are analyzed in quantum crossbars (QCB, a superlattice formed by two crossed interacting arrays of quantum wires), with short range inter-wire interaction. It is shown that the standard…
Unlike typical condensed-matter systems, ultra-cold atoms loaded into optical lattices allow separate control of both the particle number and system size. As a consequence, there are two distinct "thermodynamic" limits that can be defined…
