Review text

This paper deals with the regularity of the magnetization field for a rigid ferromagnet occopying a spatial region \(\Omega\). The magnetization field is described by a unit vector field \(m\) on \(\Omega\). The total energy of \(m\) is the sum of several terms: the anisotropy energy, the applied energy due to external magnetic sources, and the induced magnetic field energy. The authors show that the minimizers of the total energy have at most isolated singularities (usually in the interior of \(\Omega)\) and there is nice asymptotic behaviour at such singularities . The proof is based on the fact that the exchange energy (which is relatively small at the macroscopic scale) becomes the dominant term at the microscopic scale, in the presence of rapid oscillations of the magnetic field.
