Journal ArticleDOI
Strong enhancement of superconducting T(c) in ferromagnetic phases.
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the critical temperature for spin-triplet, $p$-wave superconductivity mediated by spin fluctuations is generically higher in a Heisenberg ferromagnetic phase than in a paramagnetic one, due to the coupling of the magnons to the longitudinal magnetic susceptibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Local versus nonlocal order-parameter field theories for quantum phase transitions
TL;DR: In this article, general conditions are formulated that allow us to determine which quantum phase transitions in itinerant electron systems can be described by a local Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson (LGW) theory solely in terms of the order parameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum phase transition of itinerant helimagnets
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the quantum phase transition of itinerant electrons from a paramagnet to a state which displays long-period helical structures due to a Dzyaloshinskii instability of the ferromagnetic state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transport Anomalies and Marginal Fermi-Liquid Effects at a Quantum Critical Point

TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of disordered itinerant electrons across a quantum ferromagnetic transition is discussed, and it is shown that critical fluctuations lead to anomalies in the temperature and energy dependence of the conductivity and the tunnelling density of states, respectively, that are stronger than the usual weak localisation anomalies in disordered Fermi liquid.
