We consider the double-exchange for systems in which doped electrons occupy degenerate orbitals, treating the realistic situation with double degenerate $e_g$ orbitals. We show that the orbital degeneracy leads in general to formation of…
A short introduction to the complex phenomena encountered in transition metal oxides with either charge or orbital or joint charge-and-orbital order, usually accompanied by magnetic order, is presented. It is argued that all the types of…
A simple model of charge ordering is considered. It is shown explicitly that at any deviation from half-filling ($n \neq 1/2$) the system is unstable with respect to phase separation into charge ordered regions with $n = 1/2$ and metallic…
An explanation is given for the charge order, orbital order and insulating state observed in half-doped manganese oxides, such as Nd$_{1/2}$Sr$_{1/2}$MnO$_{3}$. The competition between the kinetic energy of the electrons and the magnetic…
We investigate the magnetic instabilities of the two-dimensional model of interacting e_g electrons for hole doping away from two electrons per site in the mean-field approximation. In particular, we address the occurrence of orbitally…
We establish a novel mechanism of stripe formation in doped systems with alternating $t_{2g}$ orbital order --- the stripe takes the form of a ferro-orbitally ordered domain wall separating domains with staggered order and allowing for…
Spin-state transitions, observed in many transition metal compounds containing Co$^{3+}$ and Fe$^{2+}$, may occur with the change of temperature, pressure, but also with doping, in which case the competition of single-site effects and…
The ground state of a double-exchange model for orbitally degenerate $e_g$ electrons with Jahn-Teller lattice coupling and weak disorder is found to be spatially inhomogeneous near half filling. Using a real space Monte-Carlo method we show…
In addition to Anderson and Mott localization, intrinsic phase separation has long been advocated as the third fundamental mechanism controlling the doping-driven metal-insulator transitions. In electronic system, where charge neutrality…
The generic changes of the electronic compressibility in systems which show magnetic instabilities is studied. It is shown that, when going into the ordered phase, the compressibility is reduced by an amount comparable to the its original…
We consider the nanoscale electronic phase separation in a wide class of different materials, mostly in strongly correlated electron systems. The phase separation turns out to be quite ubiquitous manifesting itself in different situations,…
The magnetic and orbital orders for the bilayer manganites in the doping region $0.5 < x <1.0$ have been investigated from a model that incorporates the two $e_g$ orbitals at each Mn site, the inter-orbital Coulomb interaction and lattice…
We analyze a $t_{2g}$ double-exchange system where the orbital directionality of the itinerant degrees of freedom is a key dynamical feature that self-adjusts in response to doping and leads to a phase diagram dominated by two classes of…
Spin-charge-orbital ordered structures in doped layered manganites are investigated using an orbital-degenerate double-exchange model tightly coupled to Jahn-Teller distortions. In the ferromagnetic phase, unexpected diagonal stripes at…
In the framework of a two-band model, we study the phase separation regime of different kinds of strongly correlated charge carriers as a function of the energy splitting between the two sets of bands. The narrow (wide) band simulates the…
The role of lattice distortion in the charge, orbital and spin ordering in half doped manganites has been investigated. For fixed magnetic ordering, we show that the cooperative lattice distortion stabilize the experimentally observed…
A unified theory is developed to explain various types of electronic collective behaviors in doped manganites R$_{1-x}$X$_x$MnO$_3$ (R = La, Pr,Nd etc. and X = Ca, Sr, Ba etc.). Starting from a realistic electronic model, we derive an…
An orbital ordering, often observed in Mott insulators with orbital degeneracy, is usually supposed to disappear with doping, e.g. in the ferromagnetic metallic phase of manganites. We propose that the orbital ordering of a novel type may…
We summarize some characteristic features of the frustrated magnetic interactions in spin-orbital models adequate for cubic transition metal oxides with orbital degeneracy. A generic tendency towards dimerization, found already in the…
Phase separation and a tendency to form inhomogeneous structures seems to be a generic property of systems with strongly correlated electrons. After shortly summarising the existing theoretical results in this direction, I concentrate on…
