Mean-Field Phase Diagram of Disordered Bosons in a Lattice at Non-Zero Temperature — Konstantin Krutitsky, •Axel Pelster, and Robert Graham — Fachbereich Physik, Universität Duisburg-Essen, Lotharstraße 1, 47048 Duisburg, Germany

Bosons in a periodic lattice with on-site disorder at low but non-zero temperature are considered within a mean-field theory [1]. The criteria used for the definition of the superfluid, Mott insulator and Bose glass are analysed. Since the compressibility does never vanish at non-zero temperature, it cannot be used as a general criterion. We show that the phases are unambiguously distinguished by the superfluid density and the density of states of the low-energy exitations. The phase diagram of the system is calculated. It is shown that even a tiny temperature leads to a significant shift of the boundary between the Bose glass and superfluid.
