Temperature-dependent “frustration”: A thermodynamic rather than a topological effect

Roberto J.V. dos Santos and M.L. Lyra

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 1992, vol. 182, issue 1, 133-144

Abstract: On the basis of the study of the correlation functions around a plaquette on a lattice with competing interactions we define a new concept of “frustration” that is temperature dependent. This new concept allows us to define a “frustration temperature” (TF) above which our concept is identical to that introduced by Toulouse on purely topological grounds.
