Frustration in magnetic systems

"Frustration in Magnetic Systems" is a specialized book that explores the concept of frustration in solid-state physics, particularly in the context of magnetic systems. Originally introduced in the 1970s in relation to spin glasses, the understanding of frustration in crystalline magnetic materials has evolved, revealing a variety of phenomena that extend beyond magnetism. This book offers a comprehensive examination of the classical model of triangular antiferromagnets, including the calculation of phase diagrams for Heisenberg models. It combines theoretical analyses with numerical calculations and is aimed at students and researchers who wish to familiarize themselves with frustration, topological analyses of phase transitions, and classical Monte Carlo simulations. Additionally, it serves as a reference work for researchers dealing with frustrated systems.
