Abstract
The ground state of hard-core bosons on the square lattice with nearest and next-nearest neighbor repulsion is studied by Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. A supersolid phase with vacancy condensation and 'star' diagonal ordering is found for filling less than a quarter. At fillings above one quarter, a supersolid phase exists between the star and the stripe crystal at half-filling. No supersolid phase occurs above quarter-filling, if the ground state at half-filling is either a checkerboard crystal or a superfluid. No commensurate supersolid phase is observed.
