Symmetry-Guided Machine Learning of Spin-Dependent Nonlinear Hall Response

Abstract

A Berry-curvature dipole can produce a nonlinear Hall current even when the linear Hall response vanishes, but symmetry alone does not determine its magnitude or magnetic tunability. The interplay of structural symmetry, moment orientation, and carrier occupation is examined in a honeycomb model. Curvature maps and the band-summed dipole integrand reveal how velocity and the occupation window near the Fermi level select signed contributions. Removing threefold rotation permits a nonmagnetic dipole perpendicular to the surviving mirror. Generic magnetic reorientation activates the second component and tunes both components through positive and negative values. Global reversal preserves the dipole while reversing the intrinsic linear Hall conductivity, allowing a finite bulk dipole contribution from equally populated reversed domains under uniform-field averaging.A symmetry-constrained polynomial model predicts both dipole components for 256 held-out spin configurations, achieving coefficients of determination $R^2 > 0.9995$ at the reference chemical potential. At fixed carrier density, orientation-dependent shifts of the chemical potential modify the response and yield slightly larger prediction errors for the chosen model. Across the chemical-potential sweep,the prediction accuracy decreases more strongly for $D_y$,revealing an energy dependence of the surrogate's performance. Within semiclassical transport with a constant relaxation time, the calculated dipole determines the angular dependence of the quadratic current and its rectified and second-harmonic components. These results provide a quantitative representation of magnetic-orientation-dependent Berry-curvature dipoles and show how carrier occupation influences both the response and its predictability.

Effective Atom Theory: Gradient-Driven Materials Design

We introduce Effective Atom Theory (EAT), which embeds discrete atomic identities into a continuous differentiable space. During optimization, sites pass through temporary effective mixtures, then are driven to fully discrete, physically realizable atoms. This enables gradient-based optimization in DFT and MLIPs, yielding orders-of-magnitude acceleration over discrete methods. EAT recovers the exact ground state of NaCl in a 128 atom cell, reconstructs the Cu-Pd phase diagram, optimizes high-entropy oxides for oxygen evolution, and discovers bonding topologies as demonstrated for SrTiO3.

Metadynamics for Vacancy Dynamics in Crystals

We propose a metadynamics-based (MetaD-based) approach to construct the free energy surface (FES) for vacancy dynamics in crystals. In this approach, the vacancy FES can be constructed without explicitly defining a unique vacancy coordinate by introducing a set of parameters that strongly govern the FES, which is enabled by parallel bias MetaD with partitioned families (PB-MetaDPF). In addition, the proposed approach is made more efficient and effective by multihill strategy that exploits crystallographic symmetry. We demonstrate the validity and efficacy of the proposed approach by its applications to self-diffusion and impurity diffusion via monovacancies and divacancies in metallic and ionic crystals.

A high-entropy form of $R$Mn$_6$Sn$_6$ with distinct magnetotransport regimes correlated to different magnetic structures

The kagome $R$Mn$_6$Sn$_6$ material family has attracted significant attention as high-temperature metallic magnets with a host of different magnetic orderings and anisotropy. Theoretical studies point to the rare-earth ($R$) as the determining factor for both the direction of magnetic anisotropy and the type of magnetic ordering in a given compound. This motivates studying high-entropy forms of $R$Mn$_6$Sn$_6$ to examine how the interplay of several rare-earth elements leads to different magnetic states in a single crystal. Here, we present a rare-earth mix of Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Lu that produces phase transitions from a paramagnet to an easy-plane ferrimagnet (FiM) below $T_{\text{C}}$ = 380 K, then to a FiM easy-axis state at $T_{\text{SR1}}$ = 207 K, to a canted FiM ground state below $T_{\text{SR2}}$ = 79 K. This behavior is consistent with previously reported high-entropy $R$Mn$_6$Sn$_6$ compounds; however, uniquely, the rare-earth mix studied here exhibits a broad transition from easy-plane to easy-axis anisotropy from 270 K to 170 K, and reveals a nonmonotonic magnetoresistance. Using neutron scattering data, we found that both observations correlate with an incommensurate modulated contribution to the spin state due to competing rare-earth interactions. This magnetoresistive behavior and the correlated spin structures underscore the potential for rare-earth engineering of magnetism.
