Abstract
We investigate the momentum distribution associated with quantum phase transitions between a superfluid and a charge-density-wave state in the one-dimensional hard-core extended boson Hubbard model at half filling by using the Lanczos exact diagonalization method. The momentum distribution shows distinct features in different regions. At the Heisenberg point, it shows a universal behavior. In the superfluid phase, the Luttinger-liquid parameters are easily obtained from the finite-size scaling behaviors of the zero-momentum occupancy. Also the signature of a charge-density wave can be identified in the insulating phase.
