We develop a variational theory of the crossover from the one-dimensional (1D) regime to the 3D regime for ultra-cold Bose gases in thin waveguides. Within the 1D regime we map out the parameter space for fermionization, which may span the…
We investigate the Mott transition in weakly-coupled one-dimensional (1d) fermionic chains. Using a generalization of Dynamic Mean Field Theory, we show that the Mott gap is suppressed at some critical hopping $t_{\perp}^{c2}$. The…
