Using entanglement to discern phases in the disordered one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model

We perform a matrix product state based density matrix renormalisation group analysis of the phases for the disordered one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model. For particle densities N/L = 1, 1/2 and 2 we show that it is possible to obtain a full phase diagram using only the entanglement properties, which come "for free" when performing an update. We confirm the presence of Mott insulating, superfluid and Bose glass phases when N/L = 1 and 1/2 (without the Mott insulator) as found in previous studies. For the N/L = 2 system we find a double lobed superfluid phase with possible reentrance.
