We study pattern formation within the $ J_1 $-$ J_3 $-spin model on a two-dimensional
square lattice in the case of incompatible (ferromagnetic) boundary conditions on the spin …

Renormalized energy between fractional vortices with topologically induced free discontinuities on 2-dimensional Riemannian manifolds

R Badal, M Cicalese - arXiv preprint arXiv:2204.01840, 2022 - arxiv.org
On a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold without boundary we consider the variational
limit of a family of functionals given by the sum of two terms: a Ginzburg-Landau and a …
