Influence of the triangular Mn-O breathing mode on magnetic ordering in multiferroic hexagonal manganites

We use a combination of symmetry analysis, phenomenological modeling, and first-principles density functional theory to explore the interplay between the magnetic ground state and the detailed atomic structure in the hexagonal rare-earth manganites. We find that the magnetic ordering is sensitive to...
