We study collective behavior of magnetic adatoms randomly distributed on the surface of a topological insulator. As a consequence of the spin-momentum locking on the surface, the RKKY-type interactions of two adatom spins depend on the…
The non-interacting band structure of spinless fermions in a two-dimensional ($d=2$) $p$-band honeycomb lattice exhibits two quadratic band touching points (QBTPs), which lie at the Fermi levels of filling $\nu=1/4$ and its particle-hole…
The electronic and magnetic properties of concentrated and diluted ferromagnetic semiconductors are investigated by using the Kondo lattice model, which describes an interband exchange coupling between itinerant conduction electrons and…
We present a theory for the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction mediated by a two-dimensional (2D) electron system subjected to periodic driving. This is demonstrated for a heterostructure consisting of two ferromagnets…
We study theoretically the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction in one- and two-dimensions in presence of a Rashba spin-orbit (SO) coupling. We show that rotation of the spin of conduction electrons due to SO coupling causes a…
Topological defects, such as domain walls and vortices, have long fascinated physicists. A novel twist is added in quantum systems like the B-phase of superfluid helium He$_3$, where vortices are associated with low energy excitations in…
We propose a theoretical framework to engineer hybrid-order and higher-order topological phases in three-dimensional topological insulators by coupling to $d$-wave altermagnets (AMs). Presence of only $d_{x^2-y^2}$-type AM drives the system…
In two dimensions, magnetic higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) are characterized by excess boundary charge and a compensating bulk ``filling anomaly.'' At the same time, without additional noncrystalline symmetries, the boundaries…
Indirect exchange interaction between magnetic impurities in one dimensional systems is a matter of long discussions since Kittel has established that in the asymptotic limit it decays as the inverse of distance x between the impurities. In…
We take a two-step theoretical approach to study magnetism of rare earth quasicrystals by considering Ising spins on quasiperiodic tilings, coupled via RKKY interactions. First, we compute RKKY interactions from a tight-binding Hamiltonian…
We theoretically study the effect of impurity resonances on the indirect exchange interaction between magnetic impurities in the surface states of a three-dimensional topological insulator. The interaction is composed of an isotropic…
A two-site cluster generalization of the Hubbard model in large dimensions is examined in order to study the role of short-range spin correlations near the metal-insulator transition (MIT). The model is mapped to a two-impurity…
We study phase transitions in the two-dimensional Heisenberg model with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, the Ising anisotropy ($\eta$), and the dipolar interaction under zero and finite magnetic fields ($H$). For three typical…
The recent discoveries of higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) have shifted the paradigm of topological materials, which was previously limited to topological states at boundaries of materials, to those at boundaries of boundaries,…
We study spin configurations of classical magnetic impurities placed close to the edge of a two-dimensional topological superconductor both analytically and numerically. First, we demonstrate that the spin of a single magnetic impurity…
Higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) are a newly discovered class of topological insulators which exhibit unconventional bulk-boundary correspondence. Very recently, the concept of HOTIs has been extended to aperiodic…
Higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) represent a novel class of topological materials, characterised by the emergence of topological boundary modes at dimensions two or more lower than those of bulk materials. Recent experimental…
We explore the possibility of inducing a topological insulator phase in a honeycomb lattice lacking spin-orbit interaction using a metallic (or Fermi gas) environment. The lattice and the metallic environment interact through a…
Heavy fermion materials naturally combine strong spin-orbit interactions and electronic correlations. When there is precisely one conduction electron per impurity spin, the coherent heavy fermion state is insulating. This Kondo insulating…
Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals magnets offer a promising platform for pushing skyrmion technology to the single-layer limit with high tunability. While Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) is often recognized as central to skyrmion…
