Abstract
In the present paper, we analytically and numerically investigate the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) loaded into deep optical lattices of one dimension (1D), 2D, and 3D. We focus on the self-trapped state and the effect of the lattice dimension. Under the tight-binding approximation, we obtain an analytical criterion for the self-trapped state of BEC using the time-dependent variational method. The phase diagram for self-trapping, soliton, breather, or diffusion of a BEC cloud is obtained accordingly and verified by directly solving a discrete Gross-Pitaevskii equation numerically. In particular, we find that the criterion and the phase diagrams are modified dramatically by the dimension of the optical lattices.
