We use a large N renormalization group (RG) method to study a model of interacting boson system with a quenched random potential. In the absence of impurities , the pure boson system has a critical point that describes the superfluid-Mott-insulator (SF-MI) transition. The SF-MI transition of d dimensional bosons belongs to the (d + 1) dimensional XY model universality class. In this paper, we s...
