Colossal magnetoresistance is of great fundamental and technological significance and exists mostly in the manganites and a few other materials. Here we report colossal magnetoresistance that is starkly different from that in all other…
Critical points that can be suppressed to zero temperature are interesting because quantum fluctuations have been shown to dramatically alter electron gas properties. Here, the metal formed by Co doping the paramagnetic insulator FeS$_2$,…
Phase separation and a tendency to form inhomogeneous structures seems to be a generic property of systems with strongly correlated electrons. After shortly summarising the existing theoretical results in this direction, I concentrate on…
Materials with strong magnetoresistive responses are the backbone of spintronic technology, magnetic sensors, and hard drives. Among them, manganese oxides with a mixed valence and a cubic perovskite structure stand out due to their…

We develop a hydrodynamic description of electron magnetotransport in conductors without Galilean invariance in the presence of a weak long-range disorder potential. We show that magnetoresistance becomes strong (of order 100 %) at…
Colossal magnetoresistance (MR) is a well-known phenomenon, notably observed in hole-doped ferromagnetic manganites. It remains a major research topic due to its potential in technological applications. Though topological semimetals also…

We have recently reported a new mechanism of colossal magnetoresistance in electron doped Mn oxypnictides NdMnAsO1-xFx. Magnetoresistances of up to -95 percent at 3 K have been observed. Here we show that upon replacing Nd for Pr, the CMR…
Transport properties of manganese oxides suggest that their colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) is due to percolation between ferromagnetic metallic (FM) clusters in an antiferromagnetic insulating (AFI) matrix. We have studied small-angle…
