The inability of systems of interacting objects to satisfy all constraints simultaneously leads to frustration. A particularly important consequence of frustration is the ability to access certain protected parts of a system without disturbing the others. For magnets such protectorates have been inferred from theory and from neutron scattering, but their practical consequences have been unclear. We show that a magnetic analogue of optical hole-burning can address these protected spin clusters in a well-known, geometrically frustrated Heisenberg system, gadolinium gallium garnet. Our measurements additionally provide a resolution of a famous discrepancy between the bulk magnetometry and neutron diffraction results for this magnetic compound.

We consider magnon excitations in the spin-glass phase of geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets with weak exchange disorder, focussing on the nearest-neighbour pyrochlore-lattice Heisenberg model at large spin. The low-energy degrees of freedom i
n this system are represented by three copies of a U(1) emergent gauge field, related by global spin-rotation symmetry. We show that the Goldstone modes associated with spin-glass order are excitations of these gauge fields, and that the standard theory of Goldstone modes in Heisenberg spin glasses (due to Halperin and Saslow) must be modified in this setting.
We study the low energy physics of a Kondo chain where electrons from a one-dimensional band interact with magnetic moments via an anisotropic exchange interaction. It is demonstrated that the anisotropy gives rise to two different phases which are s
eparated by a quantum phase transition. In the phase with easy plane anisotropy, Z$_2$ symmetry between sectors with different helicity of the electrons is broken. As a result, localization effects are suppressed and the dc transport acquires (partial) symmetry protection. This effect is similar to the protection of the edge transport in time-reversal invariant topological insulators. The phase with easy axis anisotropy corresponds to the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid with a pronounced spin-charge separation. The slow charge density wave modes have no protection against localizatioin.
We propose and analyze two distinct routes toward realizing interacting symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases via periodic driving. First, we demonstrate that a driven transverse-field Ising model can be used to engineer complex interactions wh
ich enable the emulation of an equilibrium SPT phase. This phase remains stable only within a parametric time scale controlled by the driving frequency, beyond which its topological features break down. To overcome this issue, we consider an alternate route based upon realizing an intrinsically Floquet SPT phase that does not have any equilibrium analog. In both cases, we show that disorder, leading to many-body localization, prevents runaway heating and enables the observation of coherent quantum dynamics at high energy densities. Furthermore, we clarify the distinction between the equilibrium and Floquet SPT phases by identifying a unique micromotion-based entanglement spectrum signature of the latter. Finally, we propose a unifying implementation in a one-dimensional chain of Rydberg-dressed atoms and show that protected edge modes are observable on realistic experimental time scales.
We show theoretically that spin and orbital degrees of freedom in the pyrochlore oxide Y2Mo2O7, which is free of quenched disorder, can exhibit a simultaneous glass transition, working as dynamical randomness to each other. The interplay of spins and
orbitals is mediated by the Jahn-Teller lattice distortion that selects the choice of orbitals, which then generates variant spin exchange interactions ranging from ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic ones. Our Monte Carlo simulations detect the power-law divergence of the relaxation times and the negative divergence of both the magnetic and dielectric non-linear susceptibilities, resolving the long-standing puzzle on the origin of the disorder-free spin glass.
Quantum states induced by single-atomic-impurities are the current frontier of material and information science. Recently the spin-orbit coupled correlated kagome magnets are emerging as a new class of topological quantum materials, although the effe
ct of single-atomic impurities remains unexplored. Here we use state-of-the-art scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) to study the atomic indium impurity in a topological kagome magnet Co3Sn2S2, which is designed to support the spin-orbit quantum state. We find each impurity features a strongly localized bound state. Our systematic magnetization-polarized tunneling probe reveals its spin-down polarized nature with an unusual moment of -5uB, indicative of additional orbital magnetization. As the separation between two impurities progressively shrinks, their respective bound states interact and form quantized molecular orbital states. The molecular orbital of three neighboring impurities further exhibits an intriguing splitting owing to the combination of geometry, magnetism, and spin-orbit coupling, analogous to the splitting of the topological Weyl fermion line12,19. Our work demonstrates the quantum-level interplay between magnetism and spin-orbit coupling at an individual atomic impurity, which provides insights into the emergent impurity behavior in a topological kagome magnet and the potential of spin-orbit quantum impurities for information science.
