Engineering a driven-dissipative bath of altermagnetic quantum magnons for controlling classical dynamics of spins hosting spin waves, domain walls, or skyrmions

Using Schwinger-Keldysh field theory (SKFT), we engineer a dissipative and driven (i.e., out of equilibrium) bosonic bath acting on classical localized spins within a ferromagnetic insulator (FI) layer whose dynamics is governed by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, as is usually assumed in spintronics and magnonics. The bosonic bath is comprised of quantum magnons within a layer of altermagnetic insulator (AMI) that is attached to a conventional FI layer, often one of the key ingredients within spintronic and magnonic multilayers, so that interaction between slow classical (in the FI layer) and fast quantum (in the AMI layer) localized spins ensues. Such a bath, including its driving to produce a nonequilibrium distribution of altermagnetic magnons, generates a rich structure of the SKFT-derived extended LLG equation for classical spins within the FI layer. Our LLG equation contains two damping terms, both of which are spatially nonlocal and anisotropic, while one of them is also intrinsically non-Markovian, i.e., nonlocal in time. We demonstrate how to exploit these terms for tuning spintronic and magnonic effects within the FI layer of AMI/FI bilayers that involve spin wave or domain wall propagation, as well as skyrmion annihilation.

FermiLink: A Unified Agent Framework for Multidomain Autonomous Scientific Simulations

Artificial-intelligence (AI) agent frameworks have been developed for autonomous scientific simulations, but most current agent frameworks are tailored to a single or a small set of software packages. Herein, FermiLink, a unified and extensible open-source agent framework is introduced for multidomain scientific simulations. Its key design principle is the separation of package knowledge bases from simulation workflows, so that simulation workflows in FermiLink, from figure-level simulations to full-paper-level research on high-performance computing clusters, operate uniformly among supported packages via a four-layer progressive disclosure mechanism. Using OpenAI Codex as the agent provider, the capabilities of FermiLink are demonstrated across approximately 50 scientific software packages spanning nine research domains from physics to engineering. Systematic benchmarks on 132 real-world figure-level reproduction tasks with 44 packages show that FermiLink reproduces 74 (56.1%) of published figures with simulations, among which 30 achieve high-fidelity agreement and 35 reach qualitative agreement with the target figures. A smaller set of human expert-guided reproduction benchmarks with 10 packages further highlights the importance of expert insights for improving the simulation fidelity. Beyond reproduction, a single-blinded study demonstrates that FermiLink can produce research-grade results on unpublished polariton physics problems when provided with sufficiently detailed research objectives and source code, even in the absence of external documentation or tutorials. Overall, FermiLink provides a scalable research infrastructure that may accelerate the path from scientific questions to computational results across diverse domains.

Optically induced magnetic inertia and magnons from non-Markovian extension of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation

The Landau-Lisfhitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation has been the cornerstone of modeling the dynamics of localized spins, viewed as classical vectors of fixed length, within nonequilibrium magnets. When light is employed as the nonequilibrium drive, the LLG equation must be supplemented with additional terms that are usually conjectured using phenomenological arguments for direct opto-magnetic coupling between localized spins and (real or effective) magnetic field of light. However, direct coupling of magnetic field to spins is 1/c smaller than coupling of light and electrons; or both magnetic and electric fields are too fast for slow classical spins to be able to follow them. Here, we displace the need for phenomenological arguments by rigorously deriving an extended LLG equation via Schwinger-Keldysh field theory (SKFT). Within such a theory, light interacts with itinerant electrons, and then spin current carried by them exerts spin-transfer torque onto localized spins, so that when photoexcited electrons are integrated out we arrive at a spin-only equation. Unlike the standard phenomenological LLG equation with local-in-time Gilbert damping, our extended one contains a non-Markovian memory kernel whose plot within the plane of its two times variables exhibits fractal properties. By applying SKFT-derived extended LLG equation, as our central result, to a light-driven ferromagnet as an example, we predict an optically induced magnetic inertia term. Its magnitude is governed by spatially nonlocal and time-dependent prefactor, leading to excitation of coherent magnons at sharp frequencies in and outside of the band of incoherent (or thermal) magnons.

Schwinger-Keldysh non-perturbative field theory of open quantum systems beyond the Markovian regime: Application to spin-boson and spin-chain-boson models

We develop a unified framework for open quantum systems composed of many mutually interacting quantum spins, or any isomorphic systems like qubits and qudits, surrounded by one or more independent bosonic baths. Our framework, based on Schwinger-Keldysh field theory (SKFT), can handle arbitrary spin value S, dimensionality of space, and geometry, while being applicable to a large parameter space for system and bath or their coupling. It can probe regimes in which non-Markovian dynamics and nonperturbative effects pose formidable challenges for other state-of-the-art theoretical methods. This is achieved by working with the two-particle irreducible (2PI) effective action, which resums classes of Feynman diagrams of SKFT to an infinite order. Furthermore, such diagrams are generated via an expansion in 1/N, where N is the number of Schwinger bosons we employ to map spin operators onto canonically commuting ones, rather than via conventional expansion in system-bath coupling constant. We carefully benchmark our SKFT+2PI-computed results vs. numerically (quasi)exact ones from tensor network calculations applied to the archetypical spin-boson model where both methodologies are applicable. Additionally, we demonstrate the capability of SKFT+2PI to handle a much more complex spin-chain-boson model with multiple baths interacting with each spin where no benchmark from other methods is available at present. The favorable numerical cost of solving integro-differential equations produced by the SKFT+2PI framework with an increasing number of spins and time steps makes it a promising route for simulating driven-dissipative systems in quantum computing, quantum magnonics, and quantum spintronics.

Nonlocal damping of spin waves in a magnetic insulator induced by normal, heavy, or altermagnetic metallic overlayer: A Schwinger-Keldysh field theory approach

Understanding spin wave (SW) damping, and how to control it to the point of being able to amplify SW-mediated signals, is one of the key requirements to bring the envisaged magnonic technologies to fruition. Even widely used magnetic insulators with low magnetization damping in their bulk, such as yttrium iron garnet, exhibit 100-fold increase in SW damping due to inevitable contact with metallic layers in magnonic circuits, as observed in very recent experiments [I. Bertelli et al., Adv. Quantum Technol. 4, 2100094 (2021)] mapping SW damping in spatially-resolved fashion. Here, we provide microscopic and rigorous understanding of wavevector-dependent SW damping using extended Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation with nonlocal damping tensor, instead of conventional local scalar Gilbert damping, as derived from Schwinger-Keldysh nonequilibrium quantum field theory. In this picture, the origin of nonlocal magnetization damping and thereby induced wavevector-dependent SW damping is interaction of localized magnetic moments of magnetic insulator with conduction electrons from the examined three different types of metallic overlayers -- normal, heavy, and altermagnetic. Due to spin-split energy-momentum dispersion of conduction electrons in the latter two cases, the nonlocal damping is anisotropic in spin and space, and it can be dramatically reduced by changing the relative orientation of the two layers when compared to the usage of normal metal overlayer.

Anisotropic skyrmion mass induced by surrounding conduction electrons: A Schwinger-Keldysh field theory approach

The current-driven motion of magnetic skyrmions, as topologically protected winding vector fields of local magnetization, has attracted considerable attention due to both fundamental interest in the dynamics of topological solitons, and potential spintronic applications. While widely-used Thiele equation with zero skyrmion mass captures its rigid motion under the assumption of preserved skyrmion shape, experiments on realistic skyrmions find deviation due to inertial mass with numerous attempts to account for it by invoking internal skyrmion dynamics, geometry of the nanowire, and interaction with magnons or phonons. However, experimentally observed skyrmion mass is often much larger than predicted by these theories. In this Letter, we employ Schwinger-Keldysh field-theoretical approach to study conduction electrons interacting with localized magnetic moments comprising a skyrmion to obtain a stochastic differential equation of its motion. By analyzing its time-retarded damping kernel, we extract an anisotropic mass governed by conduction electrons and demonstrate its substantial effect on the current-driven skyrmion motion, even in the absence of any skyrmion deformation.

Gilbert damping in metallic ferromagnets from Schwinger-Keldysh field theory: Intrinsically nonlocal and nonuniform, and made anisotropic by spin-orbit coupling

Understanding the origin of damping mechanisms in magnetization dynamics of metallic ferromagnets is a fundamental problem for nonequilibrium many-body physics of systems where quantum conduction electrons interact with localized spins assumed to be governed by the classical Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation. It is also of critical importance for applications, as damping affects energy consumption and speed of spintronic and magnonic devices. Since the 1970s, a variety of linear-response and scattering theory approaches have been developed to produce widely used formulas for computation of spatially-independent Gilbert scalar parameter as the magnitude of the Gilbert damping term in the LLG equation. The largely unexploited for this purpose Schwinger-Keldysh field theory (SKFT) offers additional possibilities, such as to rigorously derive an extended LLG equation by integrating quantum electrons out. Here we derive such equation whose Gilbert damping for metallic ferromagnets is nonlocal, i.e., dependent on all localized spins at a given time, and nonuniform, even if all localized spins are collinear and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is absent. This is in sharp contrast to standard lore, where nonlocal damping is considered to emerge only if localized spins are noncollinear; for such situations, direct comparison on the example of magnetic domain wall shows that SKFT-derived nonlocal damping is an order of magnitude larger than the previously considered one. Switching on SOC makes such nonlocal damping anisotropic, in contrast to standard lore where SOC is usually necessary to obtain nonzero Gilbert damping scalar parameter. Our analytical formulas, with their nonlocality being more prominent in low spatial dimensions, are fully corroborated by numerically exact quantum-classical simulations.

Separation of quadrupole, spin, and charge across the magnetic phases of a one-dimensional interacting spin-1 gas

We study the low-energy collective properties of a 1D spin-1 Bose gas using bosonization. After giving an overview of the technique, emphasizing the physical aspects, we apply it to the $S=1$ Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian and find a novel separation of the quadrupole-spin-charge sectors, confirmed by time-MPS numerical simulations. Additionally, through the single particle spectrum, we show the existence of the superfluid-Mott insulator transition and the point at which the physics are described by a Heisenberg-like Hamiltonian. The magnetic phase diagrams are found for both the superfluid and insulating regimes; the latter is determined by decomposing the complete Heisenberg bilinear-biquadratic Hamiltonian, which describes the Mott insulator, into simpler, effective Hamiltonians. This allows us to keep our methods flexible and transferable to other interesting interacting condensed matter systems.
