Abstract: Quantum simulation: no satisfaction A network is termed 'frustrated' when competing interactions between nodes prevent each bond from being satisfied. Frustration in quantum networks can lead to massively entangled ground states. The authors study this process by performing a quantum simulation of a frustrated spin system using three trapped atomic ions, whose interactions are precisely controlled using optical forces.
