Ground-state Entropy of the Ising model on a Frustrated lattice

Statistical Mechanics 2026-05-20 v1

Abstract

We report the ground-state entropy of a 2-d Ising model on the Shastry-Sutherland lattice. We also study a generalization of this model, where a constraint on the zero temperature allowed configurations is removed continuously.
