Ferromagnetic materials may present a complicated domain structure, due in part to the nonlocal nature of the self interactions. In this article we present a detailed study of the structure of one-dimensional magnetic domain walls in uniaxial ferromagnetic materials, and in particular, of the Néel and Bloch walls. We analyze the logarithmic tail of the Néel wall, and identify the characteristic length scales in both the Néel and Bloch walls. This analysis is used to obtain the optimal energy scaling for the Néel and Bloch walls. Our results are illustrated with numerical simulations of one-dimensional walls. A new model for the study of ferromagnetic thin films is presented.

We address a simple model allowing the existence of domain walls with orientational moduli localized on them. Within this model, we discuss an analytic solution and explore it in the context of previously known results. We discuss the existence of one-dimensional domain walls localized on two-dimensional ones, and construct the corresponding effective action. In the low-energy limit, which is the [Formula: see text] sigma-model, we discuss the existence of skyrmions localized on domain walls, and provide a solution for a skyrmion configuration, based on an analogy with instantons. We perform symmetry analysis of the initial model and of the low-energy theory on the domain wall worldvolume.
