Abstract

We study the number statistics of ultracold bosons in optical Lattice using the slave particle technique and quantum Monte Carlo simulations. For homogeneous Bose-Hubbard model, we use the slave particle technique to obtain the number statistics near the superfluid to normal-liquid phase transition. The qualitatively behavior agree with the recent experiment probing number fluctuation [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 090401 (2006)]. We also perform quantum Monte Carlo simulations to 1D system with external harmonic trap. The results qualitatively agree with the experiments.
