Motivated by the idea of using simple macroscopic examples to illustrate the physics of complex systems, we modify a historic experimental setup in which interacting floating magnets spontaneously self-assemble into ordered clusters. By…
In many materials, ordered phases and their order parameters are easily characterized by standard experimental methods. "Hidden order" refers to a phase transition in which an ordered state emerges without such an easily detectable order…
Multi-orbital Hubbard model Hamiltonians for the undoped parent compounds of the Fe-pnictide superconductors are here investigated using mean-field techniques. For a realistic four-orbital model, our results show the existence of an…

Using polarized neutron scattering we establish that the magnetic order in La$_{1.48}$Nd$_{0.4}$Sr$_{0.12}$CuO$_4$ is either (i) one dimensionally modulated and collinear, consistent with the stripe model or (ii) two dimensionally modulated…
Within the framework of the $s$-$d(f)$ exchange model in the mean-field approximation for square, simple cubic, body-centered and face-centered cubic lattices, the formation of a ferromagnetic, spiral, and commensurate antiferromagnetic…
Exchange interaction tends to favor collinear or coplanar magnetic orders in rotationally invariant spin systems. Indeed, such magnetic structures are usually selected by thermal or quantum fluctuations in highly frustrated magnets. Here we…
We study the equilibrium spin configuration of the 2D Hubbard model at low doping, when a long-range magnetic order is still present. We use the spin-density-wave formalism and examine the two suggested candidates for a ground state: the…

Tuning magnetic order in magnetic semiconductors is a long sought goal. A proper concentration of acceptors can dramatically suppress local magnetic order in favor of the long one. Using Mn and an acceptor codoped LiZnAs as an example, we…
We study the magnetic ordering of Vanadium spinels by Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of a three-band Hubbard model. Vanadium spinels, AV$_2$O$_4$, exhibit a unique "up-up-down-down" spin ordering at low temperatures. While this magnetic…
We study the charge ordering behavior under a magnetic field $H$ in the extended Hubbard model within the coherent potential approximation. At quarter filling, for small $H$ we find that the relative variation of critical temperature is…

We use the LDA+U approach to search for possible ordered ground states of LaSrCoO$_4$. We find a staggered arrangement of magnetic multipoles to be stable over a broad range of Co $3d$ interaction parameters. This ordered state can be…
