Title: Skyrmion lattices for generic DMI
Abstract: In chiral magnets with DMI interactions, lattices of skyrmions are formed when the repulsive forces between skyrmions are balanced by the lowering of the energy through creation of skyrmions. Mathematically, these lattices can be determined by minimising the energy per unit cell, and minimising over all possible unit cells. In this talk , we'll discuss the nature and stability of such lattices for general DMI interactions and direction of applied magnetic fields.
