Ground states and the nature of a phase transition in a simple cubic fully frustrated Ising model
Abstract
The ground state of a fully frustrated simple cubic lattice on N Ising spins is worked out. A degeneracy of the order 2N234 is found. A possible phase transition is discussed within a Bethe-Peierls approximation and on the basis of symmetry arguments. The transition temperature is in good agreement with recent computer simulations.
