We combine magneto-optical imaging and a magnetic field pulse technique to study domain wall dynamics in a ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As layer with perpendicular easy axis. Contrary to ultrathin metallic layers, the depinning field is found to be…

When the energy functional of a Bose-condensed state of matter features an effective gauge potential which depends on the density $\rho$ of the condensate, the kinetic energy density of the matter field becomes nonlinear in $\rho$ and…

When two periodic potentials compete in materials, one may adopt the other, which straightforwardly generates topological defects. Of particular interest are domain walls in charge-, dipole-, and spin-ordered systems, which govern…

A domain wall in a ferromagnetic system will move under the action of an external magnetic field. Ultrathin Co layers sandwiched between Pt have been shown to be a suitable experimental realization of a weakly disordered 2D medium in which…

The electronic properties of a particular class of domain walls in gapped graphene are investigated. We show that they can support mid-gap states which are localized in the vicinity of the domain wall and propagate along its length. With a…

Noncommutative U(N) gauge theories at different N may be often thought of as different sectors of a single theory: the U(1) theory possesses a sequence of vacua labeled by an integer parameter N, and the theory in the vicinity of the N-th…

Dipole condensates, formed from particle-hole pairs, represent a unique class of charge-neutral quantum fluids that evade conventional vector gauge fields, making their electrodynamic responses difficult to probe in natural materials. Here,…

One of the fundamental effects of the laser-matter interaction is the appearance of an induced transient magnetisation. While the underlying phenomena differ in their microscopic origin and cover a diverse array of materials, here we…

The dynamic motion of topological defects in magnets induces an emergent electric field, as exemplified by the continuous flow of skyrmion vortices. However, the electrodynamics underlying this emergent field remains poorly understood. In…

We have experimentally studied the unstable dynamics of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate loaded into a 1D moving optical lattice. The lifetime of the condensate in such a potential exhibits a dramatic dependence on the…

The magnetic field (or electric current) driven domain-wall motion in magnetic nanostripes is of considerable interest because it is essential to the performance of information storage and logic devices. One of the currently key problems is…

The dynamics of a multiferroic domain wall in which an electric field can couple to the magnetization via inhomogeneous magnetoelectric interaction is investigated by the collective-coordinate framework. We show how the electric field is…

We present an InAs-GaSb-based system in which the electric-field tunability of its 2D energy gap implies a transition towards a thermodynamically stable excitonic condensed phase. Detailed calculations show a 3 meV BCS-like gap appearing in…

We propose a mechanism to create a vorton or three-dimensional skyrmion in phase-separated two-component BECs with the order parameters Psi_1 and Psi_2 of the two condensates. We consider a pair of a domain wall (brane) and an anti-domain…

Competing ground states may lead to topologically constrained excitations such as domain walls or quasiparticles, which govern metastable states and their dynamics. Domain walls and more exotic topological excitations are well studied in…

We investigate the spacetime of a thick gravitating domain wall for a general potential $V(\Phi)$. Using general analytical arguments we show that all nontrivial solutions fall into two categories: those interpretable as an isolated domain…

Domain walls between different topological phases are one of the most interesting phenomena that reveal the non-trivial bulk properties of topological phases. Very recently, gapped domain walls between different topological phases have been…

We study spin textures in a quantum Hall Ising ferromagnet. Domain walls between ferro and unpolarized states at $\nu=2$ are analyzed with a functional theory supported by a microscopic calculation. In a neutral wall, Hartree repulsion…

We present a theoretical analysis of a coupled, two-state Bose-Einstein condensate with non-equal scattering lengths, and show that dynamical instabilities can be excited. We demonstrate that these instabilities are exponentially amplified…

Dilute Bose gases, cooled down to low temperatures below the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature, form coherent ensembles described by the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. Stationary solutions to the latter are topological coherent modes. The…
