Phase Transitions in Frustrated Vector Spin Systems: Numerical Studies

D. Loison

We present in this chapter a review on recent numerical studies dealing with frustrated vector spin systems in two and three dimensions.

Canonical local algorithms for spin systems: Heat Bath and Hasting's methods

D. Loison, C. Qin, K. D. Schotte +1

We introduce new fast canonical local algorithms for discrete and continuous spin systems. We show that for a broad selection of spin systems they compare favorably to the known on…

Phase transitions in generalized chiral or Stiefel's models

D. Loison

We study the phase transition in generalized chiral or Stiefel's models using Monte Carlo simulations. These models are characterized by a breakdown of symmetry O(N)/O(N-P). We sho…

First and second order transition of frustrated Heisenberg spin systems

D. Loison, K. D. Schotte

Starting from the hypothesis of a second order transition we have studied modifications of the original Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a stacked triangular lattice (STA-model) by th…

First and second order transition in frustrated XY systems

D. Loison, K. D. Schotte

The nature of the phase transition for the XY stacked triangular antiferromagnet (STA) is a controversial subject at present. The field theoretical renormalization group (RG) in th…

"Quasi Universality classes" in 2D frustrated XY spin systems

D. Loison

Classical XY spins on a two dimensional triangular lattice with antiferromagnetic interactions are reconsidered. We find that the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition associated to the U…
