Outline • Motivation/Problem: effective scattering in optical lattice • Confinement induced resonance • Validity of Hubbard model • Collision property of Bloch waves (compare with plane waves) • Basic concept/Method • Renormalization in crystal momentum space • Results • Scattering resonance purely driven by lattice potential • Criterion for validity of single-band Hubbard model • Low-energy scattering property of Bloch waves • E-dependence, effective range • Induced molecules, detection, symmetry
as B B0 molecule Eb Motivation I: biatomic collision under confinements: induced resonance and molecules • 3D Free space: s-wave scattering length see for example: Nature 424, 4 (2003), JILA Feature 1: Feshbach resonance driven by magnetic field Feature 2: Feshbach molecule only at positive a_s

Motivation I: biatomic collision under confinements: induced resonance and molecules • 3D Free space: s-wave scattering length • Confinement Induced Resonance and Molecules see for example: CIR in quasi-1D Q: whether there is CIR or induced molecule in 3D optical lattice?
break down in two limits: • shallow lattice potential • strong interaction strength Motivation II: Validity of single-band Hubbard model to optical lattice under tight-binding approximation: Q: how to identify the criterion quantitatively?
Q: low-energy effective scattering (2 body, near E=0) free space ? explicitly, energy-dependence of scattering matrix, effective interactionrange, property of bound state/molecule…… Motivation III: Scattered Bloch waves near the bottom of lowest band near E=0, quadratic dispersion defined by band mass free space
Solution to all Qs: two-body scattering problem in optical lattice for all values of lattice potential and interaction strength ! however, • state-dependent U • Unseparable: center of mass(R) and relative motion(r) • major difficulty: • Previous works are mostly based on single-band Hubbard model, except few exact numerical works (see, G. Orso et al, PRL 95, 060402, 2005; H. P. Buechler, PRL 104, 090402, 2010: both exact but quite time-consuming with heavy numerics, also lack of physical interpretation such as individual inter/intra-band contributions, construction of Bloch-wave molecule…
E=0 + = Our method: momentum-shell renormalization ----from basic concept oflow-energy effective scattering First, based on standard scattering theory, Lippmann-Schwinger equation : implication of renormalization procedure to obtain low-energy physics!
RG eq: with boundary conditions: Our method: momentum-shell renormalization ----from basic concept of low-energy effective scattering Then, an explicit RG approach:
RG approach to optical lattice and results XL Cui, YP Wang and F Zhou, Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 153201 (2010) • Simplification of U: intra-band, specialty of OL inter-band, to renormalize short-range contribution
two-step renormalization Step I : renormalize all virtual scattering to higher-band states (inter-band) Step II : further integrate over lowest-band states (intra-band) Characteristic parameter:C1 --- interband; C2 --- intraband
Results 1. resonance scattering at E=0: resonance scattering of Rb-K mixture resonance at
Condition II: : weak interaction 2. Validity of Hubbard model: To safely neglect inter-band scattering, Condition I: : deep lattice potential Hubbard limit Under these conditions, For previous study in this limit see P.O. Fedichev et al, PRL 92, 080401 (2004).

Zero-energy resonance scattering attractive and repulsive bound state 3. Symmetry between repulsive and attractive bound state: • simply solvable: • K conserved (semi-separated) • state-independent U E s-band as/aL 0
12t T-matrix and bound state: scattering continuum 0 B bound state for a general K:
Winkler et al, Nature 441, 853 (06) 12t repulsive as>0 scattering continuum 0 attractive -as<0 From particle-hole symmetry, Resonance scattering and bound states near the bottom of lowest band for a negative a_s therefore imply resonance scattering and bound states near the top of the band for a positivea_s.
4. E-dependence, effective range : In Hubbard model regime , when compare with free space (all E): Effective interaction range of atoms in optical lattice is set by lattice constant (finite, >> range in free space), even for two atoms near the band bottom! This leads to much exotic E-dependence of T-matrix in optical lattice.
Conclusion • Effective scattering using renormalization approach • Optical lattice induced resonance scattering (zero-energy) • Large a_s, shallow v: interband + intraband • Small a_s, deep v: intraband (dominate) ------- validity criterion for single-band Hubbard model • Bound state induced above resonance • Binding energy, momentum distribution (for detection) • Mapping between attractive (ground state) and repulsive bound state via particle-hole symmetry • Exotic E-dependence of T-matrix / effective potential ------- due to finite-range set by lattice constant Phys.
