Quantum phase transition of the Bose-Hubbard model on cubic lattice with anisotropic hopping

In quantum many-body system, dimensionality plays a critical role on type of the quantum phase transition. In order to study the quantum system during dimensional crossover, we studied the Bose-Hubbard model on cubic lattice with anisotropic hopping by using the high order symbolic strong coupling expansion method. The analytic series expanded boundaries between the Mott-insulator and superfluid phase up to eighth order are calculated. The critical exponents are extracted by Padé re-summation method, which clearly shows the dimensional crossover behavior. Meanwhile, the critical points at commensurate filling can also be obtained, and they match well with the prediction of renormalization group theory. The scaling of the gap energy and whole phase diagram are given at last, and they can be taken as the benchmark for experiment and numerical simulations in the future study.
