Abstract
In this thesis we have presented an ab initio theory for the calculation of pair- and multi-spin, or multi-site, magnetic interactions in magnetic materials. Our approach is able to describe the dependence of the electronic structure on the magnetic ordering associated with each atomic site, and in turn evaluates the effect that the electronic response has on the magnetism. This is obtained from modelling thermal fluctuations of magnetic degrees of freedom, which we describe by adopting the Disordered Local Moment picture.
