"Percolation-enhanced supersolids in the extended Bose-Hubbard model," PHYSICAL REVIEW B 85(2): 020501. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevB.85.0205011098-0121http://hdl.handle.net/10919/25400We theoretically study the stability of lattice supersolid states in the extended Bose-Hubbard model with bounded spatial disorder. We construct a disorder mean-field theory and compare with quantum Monte Carlo calculations. The supersolid survives weak disorder on the simple cubic lattice. We also find that increasing disorder strength can transform a lattice solid into a supersolid as it tends to percolate through the disorder landscape.en-USIn Copyrightsuperfluid-insulator transitionanderson localizationopticallatticesquantum phasessystemsheliumbosonsstatePhysicsArticle - Refereedhttp://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevB.85.020501https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.85.020501
