We consider the 2D $J_1-J_2$ classical XY model on a square lattice. In the frustrated phase corresponding to $J_2>J_1/2$, an Ising like order parameter emerges by an ``order due to disorder'' effect. This leads to a discrete $Z_2$ symmetry…

We study the Ising model with competing ferromagnetic nearest- and antiferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor interactions of strengths $J_1 > 0$ and $J_2 < 0$, respectively, on the honeycomb lattice. For $J_2 > - J_1 / 4$ it has a…

It is well known that the 2D XY model exhibits an unusual infinite order phase transition belonging to the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) universality class. Introduction of a nematic coupling into the XY Hamiltonian leads to an additional phase…
The classical $J_1$-$J_2$ Ising model on the square lattice is a minimal model of frustrated magnetism whose phase boundaries have remained under scrutiny for decades. Signs of first-order phase transitions have appeared in some studies,…
