Abstract

We study hard-core bosons with unfrustrated hopping () and nearest neighbour repulsion () on the triangular lattice. At half-filling, the system undergoes a zero temperature () quantum phase transition from a superfluid phase at small to a supersolid at in units of . This supersolid phase breaks the lattice translation symmetry in a characteristic pattern, and is remarkably stable--indeed, a smooth extrapolation of our results indicates that the supersolid phase persists for arbitrarily large .
