Renormalization of exchange coupling parameters in systems with coexisting strong and induced magnetic moments — •Phivos Mavropoulos, Marjana Ležaić, Gustav Bihlmayer, and Stefan Blügel — Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich and JARA, D-52425 Jülich

In magnetic systems with coexisting strong and induced (weak) magnetic moments, it is often the case that the magnetic excitations change the direction and magnitude of the weak moments but only the direction of the strong moments. It is also often the case that the energy landscape can be parametrised by a quadratic dependence on the weak-moments magnitude in addition to a Heisenberg expression for the strong-moments direction. We show that under these conditions the weak moments can be completely eliminated as degrees of freedom in favour of renormalized exchange coupling parameters among the strong moments. We further show that this renormalization is also valid at elevated temperatures. The thermodynamic properties (including all correlation functions) of the full system, where the strong and weak moments are independent degrees of freedom, can be derived from the correlation functions of the renormalized system, where only the strong moments are accounted for as degrees of freedom. A prerequisite for the latter theorem is a quadratic measure in the phase space of the weak moments. The theorem justifies certain schemes for the derivation of exchange parameters and can also be of practical use for reducing the numerical load in calculations.
