The Crystalline Electric Field (CEF) influence is usually described by considering an ideally symmetrical rare-earth site. In the case of cage compounds, ample excursions of the rare-earth inside the cage require an adapted CEF description.…
Two quantum spin models with bilinear-biquadratic exchange interactions are constructed on the checkerboard lattice. It is proved that, under certain sufficient conditions on the exchange parameters, their ground states consist of two…

We consider the ground state of a mixture of two pseudospin-$\1/2$ Bose gases with interspecies spin exchange in a trapping potential. In the mean field approach, the ground state can be described in terms of four wave functions governed by…
Spin-state transitions are the hallmark of rare-earth cobaltates. In order to understand them, it is essential to identify all relevant parameters which shift the energy balance between spin states, and determine their trends. We find that…
Synthetic spin-orbit coupling in cold atoms couples the pseudo-spin and spatial degrees of freedom, and therefore the inherent spin symmetry of the system plays an important role. In systems of two pseudo-spin degrees, two particles contain…
Rare-earth chalcohalide REChX (RE = rare earth; Ch = O, S, Se, Te; X = F, Cl, Br, I) is a newly reported family of Kitaev spin liquid candidates. The family offers a platform where a strong spin-orbit coupling meets a van der Waals layered…
We show that the low lying spin states of two electrons in a semiconductor quantum dot can be strongly mixed by electron-electron asymmetric exchange. This mixing is generated by the coupling of electron spin to its orbital motion and to…
