High-Order Strong-Coupling Expansion for Bose-Hubbard Model — Tao Wang^1,2, Xue-Feng Zhang¹, Sebastian Eggert¹, and •Axel Pelster¹ — ¹Physics Department and Research Center OPTIMAS, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, Germany — ²Department of Physics, Harbin Institute of Technology, China

We apply the process-chain method [1,2] in order to calculate the quantum phase boundary between the Mott insulator and the superfluid phase for bosons in a hypercubic optical lattice within the strong-coupling method [3]. The respective results in 1d, 2d, and 3d, which are obtained up to 12th order and then extrapolated to infinite order, turn out to coincide almost with high-precision Quantum-Monte Carlo results. Finally, we show that these high-order strong-coupling results also follow from a high-order effective potential calculation [2,4,5].
