We relate the entropies of ensembles of atoms in optical lattices to atoms in simple traps. We then determine which ensembles of lattice-bound atoms will adiabatically transform into a Bose condensate. This shows a feasible approach to Bose…

We investigate thermodynamic properties of lattice Bose gases in optical cavities in the Mott-insulator limit. We find the system assumes anomalous thermodynamic behavior that can be traced back to the breaking of fundamental additivity by…
We theoretically analyze the response properties of ultracold bosons in optical lattices to the static variation of the trapping potential. We show that, upon an increase of such potential (trap squeezing), the density variations in a…

We consider a hybrid atom-optomechanical system consisting of a mechanical membrane inside an optical cavity and an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate outside the cavity. The condensate is confined in an optical lattice potential formed by a…
We experimentally show that dipolar interaction can stabilize otherwise unstable many-body systems like an attractive Bose gas. In a one dimensional lattice the repulsive dipolar on-site interaction balances negative scattering lengths up…
We study the behavior of a Bose-Einstein condensate held in an optical lattice. We first show how a self-trapping transition can be induced in the system by either increasing the number of atoms occupying a lattice site, or by raising the…

A condensate in an optical lattice, prepared in the ground state of the superfluid regime, is stimulated first by suddenly increasing the optical lattice amplitude and then, after a waiting time, by abruptly decreasing this amplitude to its…
We have shown that the critical temperature of a Bose-Einstein condensate to a normal phase transition of noninteracting bosons in cubic optical lattices has a linear dependence on the filling factor, especially at large densities. The…
We consider spin-orbit coupled Bose Einstein Condensate in presence of linear and nonlinear optical lattices within the framework of quasi-one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The population imbalance between the states changes…

We show that the current method of determining superfluidity in optical lattices based on a visibly sharp bosonic momentum distribution $n({\bf k})$ can be misleading, for even a normal Bose gas can have a similarly sharp $n({\bf k})$. We…
We analyze by means of Matrix-Product-State simulations the correlation dynamics of strongly-correlated superfluid Bose gases in one-dimensional time-dependent optical lattices. We show that, as for the case of abrupt quenches, a…
