abstract = {Magnetic kagome metals, in which topologically non-trivial
band structures and electronic correlation are intertwined,
have recently emerged as an exciting platform to explore
exotic correlated topological phases, that are usually not
found in weakly interacting materials described within the
semi-classical picture of electrons. Here, via a
comprehensive single-crystal neutron diffraction and
first-principles density functional theory study of the
archetypical topological kagome metal Mn$_3$Sn, which is
also a magnetic Weyl fermion material and a promising chiral
magnet for antiferromagnetic spintronics, we report the
realisation of an emergent spin-density wave (SDW) order, a
hallmark correlated many-body phenomenon, that is engineered
by the Fermi surface nesting of topological flat bands. We
further reveal that the phase transition, from the
well-known high-temperature coplanar and non-collinear k = 0
inverse triangular antiferromagnetic order to a double-$k$
non-coplanar modulated incommensurate magnetic structure
below $T_1$ = 280 K, is primarily driven by the SDW
instability. The double-$k$ nature of this complex
low-temperature magnetic order, which can be regarded as an
intriguing superposition of a longitudinal SDW with a
modulation wavevector k$_L$ and a transverse incommensurate
helical magnetic order with a modulation wavevector k$_T$,
is unambiguously confirmed by our observation of the
inter-modulation high-order harmonics of the type of
2k$_L$+k$_T$. This discovery not only solves a long-standing
puzzle concerning the nature of the phase transition at
$T_1$, but also provides an extraordinary example on the
intrinsic engineering of correlated many-body phenomena in
topological matter. The identified multi-$k$ magnetic state
can be further exploited for the engineering of the new
modes of magnetization and chirality switching in
antiferromagnetic spintronics.},
