We analyze the thermodynamic properties of antiferromagnetic solids subjected to a combination of mutually orthogonal uniform magnetic and staggered fields. Low-temperature series for the pressure, order parameter and magnetization up to two-loop order in the effective expansion are established. We evaluate the self-energy and the dispersion relation of the dressed magnons in order to discuss the impact of spin-wave interactions on thermodynamic observables.

Using systematic effective field theory, we explore the properties of antiferromagnetic films subjected to magnetic and staggered fields that are either mutually aligned or mutually orthogonal. We provide low-temperature series for the entropy densit y in either case up to two-loop order. Invoking staggered, uniform and sublattice magnetizations of the bipartite antiferromagnet, we investigate the subtle order-disorder phenomena in the spin arrangement, induced by temperature, magnetic and staggered fields -- some of which are quite counterintuitive. In the figures we focus on the spin-$frac{1}{2}$ square-lattice antiferromagnet, but our results are valid for any other bipartite two-dimensional lattice.
We explore the behavior of the order parameter and the magnetization of antiferromagnetic solids subjected to mutually parallel staggered and magnetic fields. The effective field theory analysis of the partition function is taken up to the two-loop l evel, where the magnon-magnon interaction comes into play. These interaction effects, however, are small. A phenomenon that comes rather unexpectedly is that the finite-temperature magnetization increases with temperature when the strengths of the staggered and magnetic field are held constant.
Hopfions are an intriguing class of string-like solitons, named according to a classical topological concept classifying three-dimensional direction fields. The search of hopfions in real physical systems is going on for nearly half a century, starti ng with the seminal work of Faddeev. But so far realizations in solids are missing. Here, we present a theory that identifies magnetic materials featuring hopfions as stable states without the assistance of confinement or external fields. Our results are based on an advanced micromagnetic energy functional derived from a spin-lattice Hamiltonian. Hopfions appear as emergent particles of the classical Heisenberg model. Magnetic hopfions represent three-dimensional particle-like objects of nanometre-size dimensions opening the gate to a new generation of spintronic devices in the framework of a truly three-dimensional architecture. Our approach goes beyond the conventional phenomenological models. We derive material-realistic parameters that serve as concrete guidance in the search of magnetic hopfions bridging computational physics with materials science.

We define matrix product states in the continuum limit, without any reference to an underlying lattice parameter. This allows to extend the density matrix renormalization group and variational matrix product state formalism to quantum field theories and continuum models in 1 spatial dimension. We illustrate our procedure with the Lieb-Liniger model.
The thermal properties of antiferromagnetic films -- in particular, the square-lattice antiferromagnet -- subjected to an external magnetic field pointing into the direction of the staggered magnetization are explored. The effective field theory anal ysis of the free energy density is carried out to two-loop order. While the emphasis is on finite temperature, we also discuss the behavior of the magnetization and staggered magnetization at zero temperature. Our results imply that the staggered magnetization increases in presence of the magnetic field -- reminiscent of magnetic catalysis. Most remarkably, if staggered and magnetic field strength are kept fixed, the magnetization initially grows when temperature increases.
