Flat Energy-Histogram Simulation of the Phase Transition in an Ising Fully Frustrated Lattice

Statistical Mechanics 2015-05-20 v2

Abstract

We show in this paper the results on the phase transition of the so-called fully frustrated simple cubic lattice with the Ising spin model. We use here the Monte Carlo method with the flat energy-histogram Wang-Landau technique which is very powerful to detect weak first-order phase transition. We show that the phase transition is clearly of first order, providing a definite answer to a question raised 25 years ago.
