The exchange interaction determines the ferromagnetic (FM) or antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering of atomic spins. When ferromagnets and antiferromagnets are coupled together, they often exhibit the exchange bias effect, a unidirectional…

The exchange energy of an arbitrary collinear-spin many-body system in an external magnetic field is a functional of the spin-resolved charge and current densities, $E_x[n_{\uparrow},n_{\downarrow},j_{\uparrow},j_{\downarrow}]$. Within the…

The magnetic force theorem provides convenient ways to study exchange interactions in magnetic systems. However, it is well known that short range interactions in itinerant magnetic systems are poorly described with the conventional use of…

The expression of the thermal fluctuation parameter in the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation has been derived from a fundamental quantum theory of spins and phonons, in which the exchange interaction between nearest atoms has been…

Magnetism of transition metal (TM) oxides is usually described in terms of the Heisenberg model, with orientation-independent interactions between the spins. However, the applicability of such a model is not fully justified for TM oxides…

A well-known connection between the magnetic susceptibility and the effective exchange parameter is analyzed. It is shown that all current computational schemes use a long-wave approximation which is suitable only for localized moments…
