Topological Phases of Ultracold Atoms Beyond Standard Optical Lattices

Abstract

The overall goal of this proposal is to discover novel quantum phases of interacting atoms on static optical lattices of non-standard geometry as well as time-periodically modulated optical lattices. The technical objectives are to develop analytic and numerical methods as well as conceptual innovations to study quantitatively many-body systems in previously inaccessible regimes, and to guide and compare with future closely-related experiments.
