Abstract
In this Letter, we derive the dispersion relation of the surface waves at the interfaces between Mott-insulating and superfluid domains for a two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice subjected to a confining potential. We then calculate their contribution to the heat capacity of the system and show how its low-temperature scaling allows an experimental test of the existence and properties of Mott insulator-superfluid domains.
