Ordering in Frustrated Systems with Continuous Spins
摘要
In contrast to the case of discrete spins, in systems with continuous variables, such as XY and Heisenberg spins, frustration leads to non-collinear ground-state spin configurations that arise as a compromise between competing interactions. In this chapter, we study the ground-state configurations and their properties at finite temperatures on the antiferromagnetic triangular lattice (AFT) and the kagome lattice for continuous variables.
