We study Heisenberg model of classical spins lying on the toroidal support, whose internal and external radii are $r$ and $R$, respectively. The isotropic regime is characterized by a fractional soliton solution. Whenever the torus size is very large, $Rtoinfty$, its charge equals unity and the soliton effectively lies on an infinite cylinder. However, for R=0 the spherical geometry is recovered and we obtain that configuration and energy of a soliton lying on a sphere. Vortex-like configurations are also supported: in a ring torus ($R>r$) such excitations present no core where energy could blow up. At the limit $Rtoinfty$ we are effectively describing it on an infinite cylinder, where the spins appear to be practically parallel to each other, yielding no net energy. On the other hand, in a horn torus ($R=r$) a singular core takes place, while for $R<r$ (spindle torus) two such singularities appear. If $R$ is further diminished until vanish we recover vortex configuration on a sphere.

The search for topological spin excitations in recently discovered two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials is important because of their potential applications in dissipation-less spintronics. In the 2D vdW ferromagnetic (FM) hone
ycomb lattice CrI$_3$(T$_C$= 61 K), acoustic and optical spin waves were found to be separated by a gap at the Dirac points. The presence of such a gap is a signature of topological spin excitations if it arises from the next nearest neighbor(NNN) Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) or bond-angle dependent Kitaev interactions within the Cr honeycomb lattice. Alternatively, the gap is suggested to arise from an electron correlation effect not associated with topological spin excitations. Here we use inelastic neutron scattering to conclusively demonstrate that the Kitaev interactions and electron correlation effects cannot describe spin waves, Dirac gap and their in-plane magnetic field dependence. Our results support the DM interactions being the microscopic origin of the observed Dirac gap. Moreover, we find that the nearest neighbor (NN) magnetic exchange interactions along the axis are antiferromagnetic (AF)and the NNN interactions are FM. Therefore, our results unveil the origin of the observedcaxisAF order in thin layers of CrI$_3$, firmly determine the microscopic spin interactions in bulk CrI$_3$, and provide a new understanding of topology-driven spin excitations in 2D vdW magnets.
In this study, we examine the thermodynamics and spin dynamics of spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 heptamers. Through an exact diagonalization of the isotropic Heisenberg Hamiltonian, we find the closed-form, analytical representations for thermodynamic propert
ies, spin excitations, and neutron scattering structure factors. Furthermore, we investigate the {cluster-like excitations of quantum spin heptamer} in the three-dimensional pyrochlore lattice material MgCr$_2$O$_4$. Using a spin mapping of the spin-1/2 heptamer excitations, the calculated structure factors of the spin-3/2 heptamer are be determined, which provides clarification for the spin excitations in MgCr$_2$O$_4$. Overall, this study demonstrates the ability to use the spin mapping of structure factors for small spin systems to analyze more complex structures.
The dynamics of S=1/2 quantum spins on a 2D square lattice lie at the heart of the mystery of the cuprates cite{Hayden2004,Vignolle2007,Li2010,LeTacon2011,Coldea2001,Headings2010,Braicovich2010}. In bulk cuprates such as LCO{}, the presence of a weak
interlayer coupling stabilizes 3D N{e}el order up to high temperatures. In a truly 2D system however, thermal spin fluctuations melt long range order at any finite temperature cite{Mermin1966}. Further, quantum spin fluctuations transfer magnetic spectral weight out of a well-defined magnon excitation into a magnetic continuum, the nature of which remains controversial cite{Sandvik2001,Ho2001,Christensen2007,Headings2010}. Here, we measure the spin response of emph{isolated one-unit-cell thick layers} of LCO{}. We show that coherent magnons persist even in a single layer of LCO{} despite the loss of magnetic order, with no evidence for resonating valence bond (RVB)-like spin correlations cite{Anderson1987,Hsu1990,Christensen2007}. Thus these excitations are well described by linear spin wave theory (LSWT). We also observe a high-energy magnetic continuum in the isotropic magnetic response. This high-energy continuum is not well described by 2 magnon LSWT, or indeed any existing theories.
We used Raman and terahertz spectroscopies to investigate lattice and magnetic excitations and their cross-coupling in the hexagonal YMnO3 multiferroic. Two phonon modes are strongly affected by the magnetic order. Magnon excitations have been identi
fied thanks to comparison with neutron measurements and spin wave calculations but no electromagnon has been observed. In addition, we evidenced two additional Raman active peaks. We have compared this observation with the anti-crossing between magnon and acoustic phonon branches measured by neutron. These optical measurements underly the unusual strong spin-phonon coupling.
Right- and left-handed circularly polarized light interact differently with electronic charges in chiral materials. This asymmetry generates the natural circular dichroism and gyrotropy, also known as the optical activity. Here we demonstrate that op
tical activity is not a privilege of the electronic charge excitations but it can also emerge for the spin excitations in magnetic matter. The square-lattice antiferromagnet Ba$_2$CoGe$_2$O$_7$ offers an ideal arena to test this idea, since it can be transformed to a chiral form by application of external magnetic fields. As a direct proof of the field-induced chiral state, we observed large optical activity when the light is in resonance with spin excitations at sub-terahertz frequencies. In addition, we found that the magnetochiral effect, the absorption difference for the light beams propagating parallel and anti-parallel to the applied magnetic field, has an exceptionally large amplitude close to 100%. All these features are ascribed to the magnetoelectric nature of spin excitations as they interact both with the electric and magnetic components of light.
