Stability and absence of a tower of states in ferrimagnets
Antiferromagnets and ferromagnets are archetypes of the two distinct (type-A and type-B) ways of spontaneously breaking a continuous symmetry. Although type-B Nambu-Goldstone modes arise in various systems, the ferromagnet was considered pathological due to the stability and symmetry-breaking nature...
