An important aspect of real ferromagnetic particles is the demagnetizing field resulting from magnetostatic dipole-dipole interaction, which causes large particles to break up into domains. Sufficiently small particles, however, remain…

A comprehensive theory of the quantum phase transition in clean, itinerant Heisenberg ferromagnets is presented. It is shown that the standard mean-field description of the transition is invalid in spatial dimensions $d\leq 3$ due to the…
We perform intensive numerical simulations of the three-dimensional site-diluted Ising antiferromagnet in a magnetic field at high values of the external applied field. Even if data for small lattice sizes are compatible with second-order…

We compute the probability of finding metastable states at a given field in the mean-field random field Ising model at T=0. Remarkably, this probability is finite in the thermodynamic limit, even on the so-called ``unstable'' branch of the…

Magnetic domain patterns under an oscillating field is studied theoretically by using a simple Ising-like model. We propose two ways to investigate the effects of the oscillating field. The first one leads to a model in which rapidly…
We introduce an alternative thermal diffusive dynamics for the spin-S Ising ferromagnet realized by means of a random walker. The latter hops across the sites of the lattice and flips the relevant spins according to a probability depending…
