The <equilibrium magnetization> is a <global minimum> of the <Landau free energy>. Its candidates are the <stationary points>
$$
0=f'(m)=2m\left(a_2+2a_4m^2+3a_6m^4\right).
$$
Thus $m=0$, or $x=m^2\geq0$ is a nonnegative root of
$$
3a_6x^2+2a_4x+a_2=0.
$$
One retains candidates with nonnegative curvature $f''(m)$ and compares their free energies; the candidate with the smallest value is the equilibrium state. Equal global minima describe <phase coexistence>.
