SUMMARY:The inverted kagome lattice: frustrated bosons without superexchang
	e 
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Sebastian Huber\, Weizmann Institute\n\nPart of the C
	ondensed Matter Theory Seminar Series.\n\nAbstract:\nThe route to quantum m
	agnetism in ultracold atom systems is obstructed\nby the difficulties of re
	aching low enough temperatures of the order\nof the superexchange coupling 
	J. The prospect of simulating the square\nlattice antiferromagnet\, and its
	 expected descendant\, the d-wave\nsuperconductor arouse a lot of current i
	nterest. Here we want to show\nhow a frustrated "quantum magnet" can be obt
	ained with bosons in an\ninverted kagome lattice without the need for tempe
	ratures that are\nmuch smaller than the hopping t. We discuss a possible ex
	perimental\nsetup and the rich zoo of phases which can be expected in this 
	system:\nranging from glassy arrangements of localized states over a coexis
	ting\ndensity-wave--;superfluid phase to the exp(3 i phi) condensate.
