Superfluid, Mott-Insulator, and Mass-Density-Wave Phases in the One-Dimensional Extended Bose-Hubbard Model
We use the finite-size density-matrix-renormalization-group (FSDMRG) method
to obtain the phase diagram of the one-dimensional () extended
Bose-Hubbard model for density in the plane, where and
are, respectively, onsite and nearest-neighbor interactions. The phase diagram
comprises three phases: Superfluid (SF), Mott Insulator (MI) and Mass Density
Wave (MDW). For small values of and , we get a reentrant SF-MI-SF phase
transition. For intermediate values of interactions the SF phase is sandwiched
between MI and MDW phases with continuous SF-MI and SF-MDW transitions. We
show, by a detailed finite-size scaling analysis, that the MI-SF transition is
of Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) type whereas the MDW-SF transition has both KT and
two-dimensional-Ising characters. For large values of and we get a
direct, first-order, MI-MDW transition. The MI-SF, MDW-SF and MI-MDW phase
boundaries join at a bicritical point at (.Comment: 10 pages, 15 figure
