We derive an effective d-dimensional Hamiltonian for a system of hard-core-bosons coupled to optical phonons in a lattice. At non-half-fillings, a superfluid-supersolid transition occurs at intermediate boson-phonon couplings, while at…

We study the nature of the ground state of the strongly-coupled two dimensional extended boson Hubbard model on a square lattice. We demonstrate that strong but finite on-site interaction U along with a comparable nearest-neighbor repulsion…
Supersolid is a mysterious and puzzling state of matter whose possible existence has stirred a vigorous debate among physicists for over 60 years. Its elusive nature stems from the coexistence of two seemingly contradicting properties,…

Conventional Hartree-Fock mean field theory is used, for the first time, to investigate the full two-dimensional t-J model. To date, all other nontrivial mean field approaches modify the Hamiltonian or violate the double occupancy…
