Topological spin textures emerging in magnetic materials usually appear in crystalline states. A long-standing dilemma is whether we should understand these emergent crystals as gathering particles or coupling waves, the answer of which…

We study the Berry curvature and Chern number of a non-collinear spin state on a honeycomb lattice that evolves from coplanar to ferromagnetic with a magnetic field applied along the $z$ axis. The coplanar state is stabilized by…

Complex magnetic order arises due to the competition of different interactions between the magnetic moments. Recently, there has been an increased interest in such states not only to unravel the fundamental physics involved, but also with…

The scalar spin chirality (SSC), whose nonzero value $\langle {\bf S}_i \cdot ({\bf S}_j \times {\bf S}_k) \rangle \neq 0$ implies the breaking of time-reversal and certain point-group symmetries in the ground state, is a key quantity…

We study the magnetic structure of the ground state of an itinerant Fermi system of spin-\nicefrac{1}{2} particles with magnetic dipole-dipole interactions. We show that, quite generally, the spin state of particles depend on its momentum,…
