A recent modification of a classic Landau–Lifshitz equation that includes the so-called spin-transfer torque is widely recognized in physics community as a model of magnetization dynamics in certain nanodevices. Motivated by some experimental evidence, we introduce a generalization of this model, coupled Landau–Lifshitz equations with spin-transfer torque terms, and analyze it from dynamical systems standpoint. An explicit stability criterion for the critical points in terms of all parameters of the system is derived and illustrated with stability diagrams. Our analysis provides certain guidelines for the design of magnetic nanodevices with optimized response to control parameters.
