Hierarchy of correlations in the Bose-Hubbard model — •Patrick Navez1, Konstantin Krutitsky1, Friedemann Queisser2, and Ralf Schützhold1 — 1Universtät Duisburg-Essen, Lotharstrasse 1, 47057 Duisburg, Germany — 2The University of British Columbia, 6224 Agricultural Road, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1, Canada
We consider the Bose-Hubbard model in the (formal) limit of large coordination numbers Z and derive a hierarchy of correlations via the 1/Z-expansion. Truncating this expansion, we obtain a set of approximate equations governing the time-dependence of the on-site reduced density matrix and the correlations between two lattice sites (which can be far apart). In some cases, this set of equations can be solved analytically [1,2,3]. In the more general situation, a numerical solution yields the time-dependence of the correlations and provides an alternative to other techniques such as density-renormalization group (or matrix-product state) methods.
