Microscopic Superfluidity in Bose Gases: From 3D to 1D

The superfluid fraction of ideal and interacting inhomogeneous Bose gases with varying asymmetry is investigated at finite temperature using well-known properties of the harmonic oscillator as well as the essentially exact microscopic path integral Monte Carlo method. We find that the superfluid fraction (i) is essentially independent of the interaction strength for all temperatures considered, (ii) changes profoundly as the effective dimensionality is varied from three- to one-dimensional, (iii) is approximately equal to the condensate fraction N0/N for spherical Bose gases, and (iv) deviates dramatically from N0/N for highly-elongated Bose gases.

Critical behavior of the planar magnet model in three dimensions

We use a hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm in which a single-cluster update is combined with the over-relaxation and Metropolis spin re-orientation algorithm. Periodic boundary conditions were applied in all directions. We have calculated the fourth-order cumulant in finite size lattices using the single-histogram re-weighting method. Using finite-size scaling theory, we obtained the critical temperature which is very different from that of the usual XY model. At the critical temperature, we calculated the susceptibility and the magnetization on lattices of size up to $42^3$. Using finite-size scaling theory we accurately determine the critical exponents of the model and find that $ν$=0.670(7), $γ/ν$=1.9696(37), and $β/ν$=0.515(2). Thus, we conclude that the model belongs to the same universality class with the XY model, as expected.
