We consider one-dimensional, interacting spinless bosons on a tight-binding lattice described by the Bose-Hubbard model. Besides attractive on-site two-body interactions, we include a three-body repulsive term such that the competition…
A modified ideal Bose gas model is proposed as an approach for liquid helium at the lambda point. The decisive modification of the ideal Bose gas model is the use of phase ordered single particle functions. The entropy due to this phase…
