$\mathrm{Fe_{n=4,5}GeTe_2}$ exhibits quasi-two-dimensional properties as a promising candidate for a near-room-temperature ferromagnet, which has attracted great interest. In this work, we notice that the crystal lattice of…

We study the origin of the gap and the role of chemical composition in the half-ferromagnetic Heusler alloys using the full-potential screened KKR method. In the paramagnetic phase the C1_b compounds, like NiMnSb, present a gap. Systems…

We performed an extensive investigation on the correlations among superconductivity, structural instability and band filling in Nb1-xB2 materials. Structural measurements reveal that a notable phase transformation occurs at x=0.2,…

The realization of bulk metallic altermagnetism has remained elusive despite the growing number of candidate materials. Here, we present evidence that moderate cobalt substitution ($\sim$15%) drives the correlated narrow-gap semiconductor…

Establishing the presence and the nature of a quantum critical point in their phase diagram is a central enigma of the high-temperature superconducting cuprates. It could explain their pseudogap and strange metal phases, and ultimately…

We review our recent studies on ferromagnetic superconductors, UGe2, URhGe and UCoGe, together with the ferromagnetic quantum criticality and paramagnetic singularity on the Ising 5f-itinerant system UCoAl. Thanks to the variety of ordered…

The zero-temperature limit of a continuous phase transition is marked by a quantum critical point, which can generate exotic physics that extends to elevated temperatures. Magnetic quantum criticality is now well known, and has been…

Competition between collective states like charge density wave and superconductivity is played out in some of the transition metal dichalcogenides unencumbered by the spin degrees of freedom. Although 2H-NbSe$_2$ has received much less…

We examine a basic lattice model of interacting fermions that exhibits quadratic band crossing points (QBCPs) in the non-interacting limit. In particular, we consider spinless fermions on the honeycomb lattice with nearest neighbor hopping…

Using density functional theory we investigate the evolution of the magnetic ground state of NbFe$_{2}$ due to doping by Nb-excess and Fe-excess. We find that non-rigid-band effects, due to the contribution of Fe-\textit{d} states to the…

Ferromagnetism in certain B2 ordered alloys such as Fe$_{60}$Al$_{40}$ can be switched on, and tuned, via antisite disordering of the atomic arrangement. The disordering is accompanied by a $\sim$1 % increase in the lattice parameter. Here…

BaFe$_2$S$_3$ is a quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic insulator that becomes superconducting under hydrostatic pressure. The magnetic ordering temperature, $T_N$, as well as the presence of superconductivity have been found to be…

We report magnetic and calorimetric measurements down to T = 1 mK on the canonical heavy-electron metal YbRh2Si2. The data reveal the development of nuclear antiferromagnetic order slightly above 2 mK. The latter weakens the primary…

Metallic quantum criticality is among the central theme in the understanding of correlated electronic systems, and converging results between analytical and numerical approaches are still under calling. In this work, we develop state-of-art…

Quantum critical points separating weak ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases trigger many novel phenomena. Dynamical spin fluctuations not only suppress the long-range order, but can also lead to unusual transport and even…

The fragile nature of itinerant magnetism can be exploited using non-thermal parameters to study quantum criticality. The recently discovered quantum critical point (QCP) in the Sc-doped (hole-like doping) itinerant antiferromagnet TiAu…

We revisit the problem of two dimensional metals in the vicinity of a quantum phase transition to incommensurate $\mathbf{Q}=2k_F$ charge density wave order, where the order parameter wave vector $\mathbf{Q}$ connects two hot spots on the…

When a metal undergoes a continuous quantum phase transition, non-Fermi liquid behaviour arises near the critical point. It is standard to assume that all low-energy degrees of freedom induced by quantum criticality are spatially extended,…

We analyze the key origin of quantum valence criticality in the heavy electron metal $\beta$-YbAlB$_4$ evidenced in the sister compound $\alpha$-YbAl$_{0.986}$Fe$_{0.014}$B$_4$. By constructing a realistic canonical model for…

The problem of quantum criticality in the context of itinerant ferro- or metamagnetism has received considerable attention [S. A. Grigera et. al., Science 294, 329 (2001); C. Pfleiderer et. al., Nature, 414, 427 (2001)]. It has been…
