46. We are interested in the phase diagram of Hamiltonian 1, which is rigorously defined in the thermodynamic limit. Hence we make the standard assumption that the system is engineered so that effects of the harmonic trapping potential typical of experiments can be safely neglected in the bulk of the lattice. In Sec. 4 we take into account the fact that the number of sites where this assumption applies is finite.
