We study ground state properties and excitation spectra for hard-core Bosons on square and triangular lattices, at half filling, using series expansion methods. Nearest-neighbor repulsion between the Bosons leads to the development of short-range density order at the antiferromagnetic wavevector, and simultaneously a roton minima in the density excitation spectra. On the square-lattice, the model maps on to the well studied XXZ model, and the roton gap collapses to zero precisely at the Heisenberg symmetry point, leading to the well known spectra for the Heisenberg antiferromagnet. On the triangular-lattice, the collapse of the roton gap signals the onset of the supersolid phase. Our results suggest that the transition from the superfluid to the supersolid phase maybe weakly first order. We also find several features in the density of states, including two-peaks and a sharp discontinuity, which maybe observable in experimental realization of such systems.
