We investigate a one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model in a parametrically driven global harmonic trap. The delicate interplay of both the local atom interaction and the global driving allows to control the dynamical stability of the trapped…
We study the correlation properties of the ground states of few ultracold bosons, trapped in double wells of varying barrier height in one dimension. Extending previous results on the signature of the transition from a Bose-condensed state…

The Mott-insulating phase of the two-dimensional (2d) Bose-Hubbard model is expected to be characterized by a non-local brane parity order. Parity order captures the presence of microscopic particle-hole fluctuations and entanglement, whose…

We study a one-dimensional model of interacting bosons on a lattice with two flat bands. Regular condensation is suppressed due to the absence of a well defined minimum in the single particle spectrum. We find that interactions stabilize a…
