立方偶极团簇中的无限几何挫挫
Infinite Geometric Frustration in a Cubic Dipole Cluster
摘要:
相互作用(磁)偶极子的几何排列是物理学、化学和工程学中的一个基本重要问题。受磁结构自组装研究的启发,本文详细研究了立方团簇中8个相互作用偶极子的平衡取向。代替离散平衡,我们发现一种新的基态由无限多个方向。这种能量简并态的连续体代表了一种未知的磁阻挫形式。相应的偶极旋转在平坦的潜在谷的戈德斯通模式,使建设无摩擦磁耦合。使用新的计算机辅助代数几何方法,我们还完全列举了所有的平衡配置。这个看似简单的立方系统允许9536个不稳定的离散平衡点落入183个不同的能量家族。
英文摘要:
The geometric arrangement of interacting (magnetic) dipoles is a question of fundamental importance in physics, chemistry and engineering. Motivated by recent progress concerning the self-assembly of magnetic structures, the equilibrium orientation of 8 interacting dipoles in a cubic cluster is investigated in detail. Instead of discrete equilibria we find a new type of ground state consisting of infinitely many orientations. This continuum of energetically degenerate states represents a yet unknown form of magnetic frustration. The corresponding dipole rotations in the flat potential valley of this Goldstone mode enable the construction of frictionless magnetic couplings. Using novel computer-assisted algebraic geometry methods, we moreover completely enumerate all equilibrium configurations. The seemingly simple cubic system allows for exactly 9536 unstable discrete equilibria falling into 183 distinct energy families.
