Spin Inertia as a Source of Topological Magnons: Chiral Edge States from Coupled Precession and Nutation

This paper demonstrates that spin inertia, when coupled with angular-momentum-breaking interactions like pseudodipolar forces in a honeycomb ferromagnet, hybridizes precessional and nutational magnons to open topological gaps and generate chiral edge states, establishing a new route for engineering topological phases in magnetic materials.

Absolute negative mobility in a one-dimensional overdamped system driven by active fluctuations

This paper demonstrates that absolute negative mobility, a paradoxical phenomenon where a system moves opposite to an applied force, can occur in a minimal one-dimensional overdamped system driven by active Poisson shot noise within a symmetric periodic potential, offering new insights into biological transport and microscopic separation strategies.

Riemannian geometric classification and emergent phenomena of magnetic textures

This paper proposes a refined classification of magnetic textures using differential geometry by introducing geodesic and torsional scalar spin chiralities to fully characterize noncoplanar states, and demonstrates that the geodesic scalar spin chirality induces novel emergent band asymmetry and nonreciprocal responses as a purely orbital quantum geometric effect.

Moiré-induced symmetry breaking of charge order in van der Waals heterostructures

This study demonstrates that stacking misfit layered chalcogenides with 1H-TaS2_2 induces anisotropic symmetry breaking in the charge-density wave state through a nonlinear coupling with the uniaxial moiré potential, while leaving the material's s-wave superconductivity largely unaffected.

Nanoscale Electronic Phase Separation Driven by Fe-site Ordering in Fe\textsubscript{5-x}GeTe\textsubscript{2}

By combining high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy with density functional theory, this study reveals that Fe-site ordering in the van der Waals ferromagnet Fe5x_{5-x}GeTe2_2 drives nanoscale electronic phase separation, where ordered Fe(1) domains exhibit metallic behavior while deficient regions display pseudogapped states due to symmetry-allowed Fe 3d-Te 5p orbital hybridization.

Linearly Polarized Light-Induced Anomalous Hall Effect and Topological Phase Transitions in an Altermagnetic Topological Insulator

This study demonstrates that periodically driven linearly polarized light can uniquely induce an anomalous Hall effect and drive topological phase transitions in altermagnetic topological insulators by breaking their intrinsic symmetries, a phenomenon absent in conventional antiferromagnets, thereby offering a robust method for distinguishing these materials and enabling dissipationless spintronic applications.

Influence of Hopping Integrals and Spin-Orbit Coupling on Quantum Oscillations in Kagome Lattices

Motivated by recent experiments on CsTi3_3Bi5_5 and RbTi3_3Bi5_5, this study demonstrates that the next-nearest-neighbor hopping integral (t2t_2) acts as a critical control parameter by modulating the hybridization gap to either suppress or enable magnetic breakdown, thereby determining whether the intrinsic nontrivial Berry phase of the kagome lattice is observable in quantum oscillations.

Universal Dynamical Scaling of Strong-to-Weak Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in Open Quantum Systems

This paper establishes that the late-time dynamical scaling of strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking in one-dimensional open quantum systems is universally controlled by the symmetry class of the Lindbladian rather than its spectral gap structure, resulting in exponential growth of the Rényi-2 correlation length for Z2\mathbb{Z}_2 symmetry and algebraic, filling-dependent scaling for U(1) symmetry.
