Spin-Wave Phase Shifter Controlled by a Domain Wall Racetrack

We propose a spin-wave phase shifter controlled using a domain-wall racetrack. The concept is demonstrated using micromagnetic simulations of a Permalloy domain-wall racetrack placed above a YIG film. The stray field from pinned domain walls modifies the internal magnetic field in the YIG region under the racetrack. This leads to a local change of the spin-wave wavelength and thereby enables control of the phase accumulated by Damon-Eshbach spin waves propagating through the region. Moving domain walls on the racetrack, the same physical structure can provide phase shifts of up to +/-90 degrees, without changing the waveguide geometry. A model based on the semiclassical approximation confirms that the phase shift is dominated by the domain-wall-induced stray field. These results suggest a route toward a compact programmable spin-wave phase shifter for interference-based magnonic circuits for information processing. Moreover, the demonstrated magnonic device integration with a magnetic domain-wall racetrack can lead to its application in in-memory computing.

Nonlinear dynamics in magnonic Fabry-P\'{e}rot resonators: Low-power neuron-like activation and transmission suppression

We report on nonlinear spin-wave dynamics in magnonic Fabry-P\'{e}rot resonators composed of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) films coupled to CoFeB nanostripes. Using super-Nyquist sampling magneto-optical Kerr effect microscopy and micromagnetic simulations, we observe a systematic downshift of the spin-wave transmission gaps as the excitation power increases. This nonlinear behavior occurs at low power levels, reduced by a strong spatial concentration of spin waves within the resonator. The resulting power-dependent transmission enables neuron-like activation behavior and frequency-selective nonlinear spin-wave absorption. Our results highlight magnonic Fabry-P\'{e}rot resonators as compact low-power nonlinear elements for neuromorphic magnonic computing architectures.

Magnonic Fabry-P\'{e}rot resonators as programmable phase shifters

We explore the use of magnonic Fabry-P\'erot resonators as programmable phase shifters for spin-wave computing. The resonator, composed of a yttrium iron garnet (YIG) film coupled with a CoFeB nanostripe, operates through dynamic dipolar coupling, leading to wavelength downconversion and the formation of a magnonic cavity. Using super-Nyquist sampling magneto-optical Kerr effect (SNS-MOKE) microscopy and micromagnetic simulations, we demonstrate that these resonators can induce a $\pi$ phase shift in the transmitted spin wave. The phase shift is highly sensitive to the magnetization alignment within the resonator, allowing for on-demand control via magnetic switching. This feature, combined with low-loss transmission, positions the magnonic Fabry-P\'erot resonator as a promising component for reconfigurable magnonic circuits and spin-wave computing devices.

A counterexample to conjecture "Catch 22"

We construct a finite deterministic graphical (DG) game without Nash equilibria in pure stationary strategies. This game has 3 players $I=\{1,2,3\}$ and 5 outcomes: 2 terminal $a_1$ and $a_2$ and 3 cyclic. Furthermore, for 2 players a terminal outcome is the best: $a_1$ for player 3 and $a_2$ for player 1. Hence, the rank vector $r$ is at most $(1,2,1)$. Here $r_i$ is the number of terminal outcomes that are worse than some cyclic outcome for the player $i \in I$. This is a counterexample to conjecture ``Catch 22" from the paper ``On Nash-solvability of finite $n$-person DG games, Catch 22" (2021) arXiv:2111.06278, according to which, at least 2 entries of $r$ are at least 2 for any NE-free game. However, Catch 22 remains still open for the games with a unique cyclic outcome, not to mention a weaker (and more important) conjecture claiming that an $n$-person finite DG game has a Nash equilibrium (in pure stationary strategies) when $r = (0^n)$, that is, all $n$ entries of $r$ are 0; in other words, when the following condition holds: $\qquad\bullet$ ($C_0$) any terminal outcome is better than every cyclic one for each player. A game is play-once if each player controls a unique position. It is known that any play-once game satisfying ($C_0$) has a Nash equilibrium. We give a new and very short proof of this statement. Yet, not only conjunction but already disjunction of the above two conditions may be sufficient for Nash-solvability. This is still open.
