Computational studies of frustration and disorder
Biswas, Sounak
Transverse field Ising antiferromagnets on frustrated lattices (and closely related quantum
dimer, quantum link models and anisotropic spin models) have served as paradigmatic examples
of the interplay between quantum fluctuations, thermal fluctuations, and the entropic
effects associated with a large degeneracy of configurations with low exchange energy.
They have been used to study a host of interesting phenomena associated with this interp...
