Title

Monte Carlo study on low-temperature phase diagrams of the J₁-J₂ classical XY kagome antiferromagnet

Abstract

Frustrated magnets with degenerate ground states exhibit exotic ground states and rich phase structures when perturbations and/or thermal fluctuations lift the degeneracy[1]. 
In two-dimensional models with short-range interactions, continuous symmetries cannot spontaneously break at finite temperatures, leading to the suppression of conventional magnetic long-range ordering[2].
In this talk, we will present the low-temperature properties of the classical J₁-J₂ XY antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice, showcasing the J₂-T phase diagram and additional numerical findings from extensive classical Monte Carlo simulations[3]. 
Furthermore, we will highlight an intriguing non-trivial first-order transition for antiferromagnetic J₂/J₁<0.
The origin of this transition will be discussed in the context of non-local loop structures found in local 120° spin structures.
