The Ba3Cu3In4O12 stands for unique topology of the magnetic subsystem. It consists of rotated by 90\Box$^b$ relative to each other "paper-chain" columns made of vertex-sharing CuIO4 and CuIIO4 planar units. The overall pattern of the copper…
We uncover a new kind of entropic long range order in finite dimensional spin glasses. We study the link-diluted version of the Edwards-Anderson spin glass model with bimodal couplings (J=+/-1) on a 3D lattice. By using exact reduction…
The electronic nematic order characterized by broken rotational symmetry has been suggested to play an important role in the phase diagram of the high temperature cuprates. We study the interplay between the electronic nematic order and a…
Spin-orbit coupling is a single-particle phenomenon known to generate topological order, and electron-electron interactions cause ordered many-body phases to exist. The rich interplay of these two mechanisms is present in a broad range of…
As a generalisation of the periodic orbit structure often seen in reflection or mirror symmetric MHD equilibria, we consider equilibria with other orientation-reversing symmetries. An example of such a symmetry, which is a not a reflection,…
We propose a scenario for the two phase transitions in $A$V$_2$O$_4$ ($A$=Zn, Mg, Cd), based on an effective spin-orbital model on the pyrochlore lattice. At high temperatures, spin correlations are strongly frustrated due to the lattice…
Frustrated transition metal compounds in which spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and electron correlation work together have attracted much attention recently. In the case of 5$d$ transition metals, where SOC is large, $j_\text{eff}=1/2$ bands near…
Elastic and inelastic neutron scattering were used to study the ordered phase of the quasi-one-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnet ${\rm BaCu_{2}Si_{2}O_{7}}$. The previously proposed model for the low-temperature magnetic structure was…

Recent finding of an {\it unusual} in-plane resistivity anisotropy in the underdoped 122-family at high temperature ($T$) suggests an orbital nematic (ON) order, posing a challenge to extant theories. The {\it sign} of the anisotropy…
Arrangement of interacting particles on a sphere is historically a well known problem, however, ordering of particles with anisotropic interaction, such as the dipole-dipole interaction, has remained unexplored. We solve the orientational…
Effects of spontaneous parity breaking by charge, spin, and orbital orders are investigated in a two-band Hubbard model on a honeycomb lattice. This is a minimal model in which the inter-orbital hopping, atomic spin-orbit coupling, and…
Magnetic toroidal order features a loop-like arrangement of magnetic dipole moments, thus breaking both spatial inversion (P) and time-reversal (T) symmetries while preserving their combined PT sym-metry. This PT symmetry enables a linear…
We introduce a microscopic model which unravels the physical mechanisms responsible for the observed phase diagram of the $R$VO$_3$ perovskites. It reveals a nontrivial interplay between superexchange, the orbital-lattice coupling due to…

Orbital and spin ordering phenomena in strongly correlated systems are commonly studied using the local-density approximation + dynamical mean-field theory approach. Typically, however, such simulations are restricted to simplified models…
