We present a general scheme for the study of frustration in quantum systems. We introduce a universal measure of frustration for arbitrary quantum systems and we relate it to a class of entanglement monotones via an exact inequality. If all the (pure) ground states of a given Hamiltonian saturate the inequality, then the system is said to be inequality saturating. We introduce sufficient conditions for a quantum spin system to be inequality saturating and confirm them with extensive numerical tests. These conditions provide a generalization to the quantum domain of the Toulouse criteria for classical frustration-free systems. The models satisfying these conditions can be reasonably identified as geometrically unfrustrated and subject to frustration of purely quantum origin. Our results therefore establish a unified framework for studying the intertwining of geometric and quantum contributions to frustration.

  1. Stabilizing Role of Uninformed Participants in Collective Decision Making

    nlin.AO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    A dissipative Hamiltonian network model shows uninformed agents stabilize collective compromise by pushing observable polarization onset to higher conflict levels through delayed escape from saddle-node ghosts.
