A generalised Landau-Lifshitz equation for isotropic SU(3) magnet

In the paper we obtain equations for large-scale fluctuations of the mean field (the field of magnetization and quadrupole moments) in a magnetic system realized by a square (cubic) lattice of atoms with spin s >= 1 at each site. We use the generalized Heisenberg Hamiltonian with biquadratic exchange as a quantum model. A quantum thermodynamical averaging gives classical effective models, which are interpreted as Hamiltonian systems on coadjoint orbits of Lie group SU(3).Comment: 15 pages, 1 figur
