Symmetry-determined generalized ferromagnetism in multi-valley electron fluids

Vladimir Calvera, Erez Berg, Steven A. Kivelson

Quantum electronic fluids with spin and valley degrees of freedom have a correlation driven tendency to flavor polarization (generalized ferromagnetism). To first order in the long…
