We study the properties of three-flavor fermions [1,2] in a optical lattice with and without a (dynamically generated) large three-body repulsion. This can be induced in the form of a hard-core constraint by three-body losses [3]. We address the properties of this system by using dynamical mean-field theory and variational Monte Carlo technique. The phase diagram of the system is very rich and shows a strong interplay between magnetization and superfluidity. Without including the three-body repulsion, the system undergoes a quantum phase transition from a color superfluid to a trionic phase [4], which displays additional CDW modulation at half-filling. This transition is washed out when including a large three-body repulsion, in which case the system is always in the superfluid phase. In this latter case the color superfluid shows a strong tendency to fully polarize at strong coupling in marked contrast with the unconstrained case where the unpolarized trionic phase dominates.
