Insulating charge transfer ferromagnetism
We propose a mechanism for insulating ferromagnetism in the honeycomb Hubbard model of semiconductor moir\'e superlattices. The ferromagnetism emerges at a critical charge transfer regime, stabilizing the quantum anomalous Hall state without Hund's coupling. We further note the ferromagnetic exchange applies to general charge transfer systems when breaking particle-hole symmetry.
