    A repulsive Hubbard model with both spin-asymmetric hopping (t↑≠t↓) and a staggered potential (of strength Δ) is studied in one dimension. The model is a compound of the mass-imbalanced (t↑≠t↓,Δ=0) and ionic (t↑=t↓,Δ>0) Hubbard models, and may be realized by cold atoms in engineered optical lattices. We use mostly mean-field theory to determine the phases and phase transitions...
