We report the calculation of cavity exciton-polariton phase diagram which takes into account the presence of realistic structural disorder. Polaritons are modelled as weakly interacting two-dimensional bosons. We show that with increasing…
We introduce a new renormalization group theory to examine the quantum phase transitions upon exiting the insulating phase of a disordered, strongly interacting boson system. For weak disorder we find a direct transition from this Mott…

In one-dimensional systems a twisted superfluid phase is found which is induced by a spontaneous breaking of the time-reversal symmetry. Using the density-matrix renormalization group allows us to show that the excitation energy gap closes…

We review the nature of superfluid ground states and the universality of their properties with emphasis to Bose Einstein Condensate systems in atomic physics. We then study the superfluid Mott transition in such systems. We find that there…
By means of Monte Carlo techniques, we study the role of disorder on a system of hard-core bosons in a two-leg ladder with both intra-chain ($t$) and inter-chain ($t^\prime$) hoppings. We find that the phase diagram as a function of the…
We discuss the superfluid to Mott-insulator transition of cold atoms in optical lattices recently observed by Greiner et.al. (Nature 415, 39 (2002)). The fundamental properties of both phases and their experimental signatures are discussed…
