The split superconducting transition of up-spin and down-spin electrons on the background of ferromagnetism is studied within the framework of a recent model that describes the coexistence of ferromagnetism and superconductivity induced by…
We investigate the normal state transport properties of Sr$_2$RuO$_4 $ and we show that a consistent explanation of the experimental results can be obtained assuming that the system is near a quantum phase transition. Within the framework…
A microscopic mean-field theory of the phase coexistence between ferromagnetism and superconductivity in the weakly ferromagnetic itinerant electron system is constructed, while incorporating a realistic mechanism for superconducting…
In the spinel compound GeCo$_2$O$_4$, the Co$^{2+}$ pyrochlore sublattice presents remarkable magnetic field-induced behaviors that we unveil through neutron and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The N\'eel ordered magnetic phase is entered…
It is assumed that U atoms in $UGe_2$ have a number of $f$ electrons appropriate to give them each a spin $s=1$ as well as one extra itinerant electron which may equally well be on one or other U atom. The dynamical degrees of freedom are…
The puzzling nature of magnetic and lattice phase transitions of iron pnictides is investigated via a first-principles Wannier function analysis of representative parent compound LaOFeAs. A rare ferro-orbital ordering is found to give rise…
Recent experiments on the kagome metal CsV$_3$Sb$_5$ reveal a curious phase transition-like feature: a nematic magnetic torque response that abruptly sets in at $T_\tau \approx 130$K, above the known charge density wave transition at…
I study phase transitions occuring in noncollinear magnets by means of a self-consistent screening approximation. The Ginzburg-Landau theory involves two N-component vector fields with two independent quartic couplings allowing a…
A Landau theory is presented for the structural transition of electrically stabilized colloidal crystals under shear. The model suggests that a structural transition from an ordered layered colloidal crystal into a disordered structure…
Phenomenological orbital-polarization (OP) terms have been repeatedly introduced in the single-particle equations of spin-density-functional theory, in order to improve the description of orbital magnetic moments in systems containing…
We show that Zeeman field can induce a topological transition in two-dimensional spin-orbit coupled metals, and concomitantly, a first-order phase transition in the superconducting state involving a discontinuous change of Cooper pair…
Ferrimagnetic spinel materials of formula AB2X4, where A and B are transition metals and X is oxygen or sulphur, hold promise for the realization of multiferroic characteristics. In this work, we report synthesis of spinel CoMn2O4 and…
We report thermodynamic, neutron diffraction, and inelastic neutron scattering measurements on Cs$_2$RuO$_4$, a member of the celebrated family of frustrated magnets Cs$_2$MX$_4$ (M = Cu, Co, X = Br, Cl). Unlike the previously studied…
Motivated by a collection of experimental results indicating the strongly correlated nature of the ferromagnetic metallic state of $CrO_{2}$, we present results based on a combination of the actual bandstructure [3] with dynamical…
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…
This article presents a phenomenological dynamic phase transition theory for ferromagnetism, leading to a precise description of the dynamic transitions, and to a physical predication on the spontaneous magnetization. The analysis also…
The long-standing problem of the effect of correlations on the ferromagnetism of is apparently nearing solution. The ferromagnetism of transition metals compounds, for instance doped manganites, poses a new question: is there some kind of…
Spin ice is a frustrated magnetic system that at low temperatures exhibits a Coulomb phase, a classical spin liquid with topological order and deconfined excitations. This work establishes the presence of a Coulomb phase with coexisting…
Recent results about the coexistence of ferromagnetism and unconventional superconductivity with spin-triplet Cooper pairing are reviewed on the basis of the quasi-phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory. The superconductivity in the mixed…
From general arguments, that are valid for spin models with sufficiently short-range interactions, we derive strong constraints on the excitation spectrum across a continuous phase transition at zero temperature between a magnetic and a…
