Abstract
Polar molecules in geometrically frustrated lattices may result in a very rich landscape of quantum phases, due to the nontrivial interplay between frustration, and two- and possibly three-body intersite interactions. In this paper we illustrate this intriguing physics for the case of hard-core polar molecules in frustrated triangular ladders. Whereas commensurate lattice fillings result in gapped phases with bond order and/or density-wave order, at incommensurate fillings we find chiral, two-component, and pair superfluids. We show as well that, remarkably, polar molecules in frustrated lattices allow for the observation of bond-ordered supersolids.
