The Phase Structure of Antiferromagnetic Ising Model in the Presence of Frustrations

The antiferromagnetic Ising model in a magnetic field is considered on the Husimi tree. Using iteration technique we draw the plots of magnetization versus external field for different temperatures and construct the resulting phase diagram. We show that frustration effects essentially change the critical properties. The model exhibits three distinct critical regions, including re-entrant phase structure and Griffiths singularities.
