Some topological issues for ferromagnets and fluids
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze the canonical structure of a continuum model of ferromagnets and clarify known difficulties in defining a momentum density. The moments of the momentum density corresponding to volume-preserving coordinate transformations can be defined, but a non-singular definition of the other moments requires an enlargement of the phase space which illuminates a close relation to fluid mechanics. We also discuss the nontrivial connectivity of the phase space for two and three dimensions and show how this feature can be incorporated in the quantum theory, working out the two-dimensional case in some detail.

Dynamics of topological solitons in two-dimensional ferromagnets
Dynamical topological solitons are studied in classical two–dimensional Heisenberg easy–axis ferromagnets. The properties of such solitons are treated both analytically in the continuum limit and numerically by spin dynamics simulations of the discrete system. Excitation of internal mode causes orbital motion. This is confirmed by simulations. Submitted to: J. Phys.: Condens. Matter PACS number...

Irreversible Thermodynamics of Non-Uniform Insulating Ferromagnets
Two types of damping are commonly applied to describe ferromagnets at the macroscopic level: one by Landau and Lifshitz, and the other by Gilbert. This work successively applies the methods of irreversible thermodynamics to insulators, insulating paramagnets, and uniform insulating ferromagnets, in the last case uniquely obtaining Landau-Lifshitz damping. These methods are then applied to non-u...
متن کاملSome notes for topological centers on the duals of Banach algebras
We introduce the weak topological centers of left and right module actions and we study some of their properties. We investigate the relationship between these new concepts and the topological centers of of left and right module actions with some results in the group algebras.
متن کاملSkyrmions and Quantum Hall Ferromagnets in Improved Composite-Boson Theory
An improved composite-boson theory of quantum Hall ferromagnets is proposed. It is tightly related with the microscopic wave-function theory. The characteristic feature is that the field operator describes solely the physical degrees of freedom representing the deviation from the ground state. It presents a powerful tool to analyze excited states within the lowest Landau level. Excitations incl...
