At half doping, the ground state of three-dimensional manganite perovskite oxides like R$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$MnO$_3$, where R is a trivalent ion such as La, Pr, etc, is still unclear. Many experimental findings agree better with the combined…
A "minimal model" of the Kondo-lattice type is used to describe a competition between the localization and metallicity in doped manganites and related magnetic oxides with Jahn-Teller ions. It is shown that the number of itinerant charge…
Spin-charge-orbital ordered structures in doped layered manganites are investigated using an orbital-degenerate double-exchange model tightly coupled to Jahn-Teller distortions. In the ferromagnetic phase, unexpected diagonal stripes at…
