It is believed that strong ferromagnetic orders in some solids are generated by subtle interplay between quantum many-body effects and spin-independent Coulomb interactions between electrons. Here we describe our rigorous and constructive…
Persistence in coarsening 1D spin systems with a power law interaction $r^{-1-\sigma}$ is considered. Numerical studies indicate that for sufficiently large values of the interaction exponent $\sigma$ ($\sigma\geq 1/2$ in our simulations),…
We consider a one-dimensional lattice of Ising-type variables where the ferromagnetic exchange interaction J between neighboring sites is frustrated by a long-ranged anti-ferromagnetic interaction of strength g between the sites i and j,…
The size of micromagnetic structures, such as domain walls or vortices, is comparable to the exchange length of the ferromagnet. Both, the exchange length of the stray field $l_s$ and the magnetocrystalline exchange length $l_k$ are…
We propose a versatile approach to treat commonly arising constraints. It is illustrated for interacting magnons of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice. For systems of $L\times L$ sites a non-perturbative continuous unitary…

Using the DMRG method we calculate the surface spin correlation function, $C_L(l)=< S_l^z S_{L+1-l}^z>$, in the spin $S=3/2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain. For comparison we also investigate the $S=1/2$ chain with S=1 impurity end…

We consider discrete random fractal surfaces with negative Hurst exponent $H<0$. A random colouring of the lattice is provided by activating the sites at which the surface height is greater than a given level $h$. The set of activated sites…
We consider a non-autonomous dynamical system formed by coupling two piecewise-smooth systems in $\RR^2$ through a non-autonomous periodic perturbation. We study the dynamics around one of the heteroclinic orbits of one of the…
The edge of torn elastic sheets and growing leaves often form a hierarchical buckling pattern. Within non-Euclidean plate theory this complex morphology can be understood as low bending energy isometric immersions of hyperbolic Riemannian…
A relation between a class of stationary points of the energy landscape of continuous spin models on a lattice and the configurations of a Ising model defined on the same lattice suggests an approximate expression for the microcanonical…
The interaction between the vortex lines in a type-II superconductor is mediated by currents. In the absence of transverse screening this interaction is long-ranged, stiffening up the vortex lattice as expressed by the dispersive elastic…
Self-assembly in the laboratory can now yield `information-rich' nanostructures in which each component is of a distinct type and has a defined spatial position. Ensuring the thermodynamic stability of such structures requires…
We propose a computational methodology based on a hierarchical cluster growth process to solve spin-3/2 Ising models efficiently. The method circumvents the exponential complexity (\(4^{N}\)) of the canonical ensemble partition function by…
Here we present a new perspective to the breakdown of ferromagnetic order in two-dimensional spin-lattice models employing the rotation of the underlying lattice. Using an Ising spin system on a square lattice as a prototype, we demonstrate…

Flow-induced aggregation of colloidal particles leads to aggregates with fairly high fractal dimension () which are directly responsible for the observed rheological properties of sheared dispersions. We address the problem of the decrease…
