In thin ferromagnetic films, the predominance of the magnetic shape anisotropy leads to in-plane magnetizations. The simplest domain wall in this geometry is the one-dimensional Neel wall that connects two magnetizations of opposite sign by…
We consider an asymptotic regime for two-dimensional ferromagnetic films that is consistent with the formation of transition layers (N\'eel walls). We first establish compactness of S2-valued magnetizations in the energetic regime of N\'eel…
We analyse two variants of a nonconvex variational model from micromagnetics with a nonlocal energy functional, depending on a small parameter $\epsilon > 0$. The model gives rise to transition layers, called N\'eel walls, and we study…
We study a nonlocal Allen-Cahn type problem for vector fields of unit length, arising from a model for domain walls (called N\'eel walls) in ferromagnetism. We show that the nonlocal term gives rise to new features in the energy landscape;…
Charged domain walls are a type of domain walls in thin ferromagnetic films which appear due to global topological constraints. The non-dimensionalized micromagnetic energy for a uniaxial thin ferromagnetic film with in-plane magnetization…
Due to its non-local nature, calculating the demagnetizing field remains the biggest challenge in understanding domain structures in ferromagnetic materials. Analytical descriptions of demagnetizing effects typically approximate domain…
