摘要
Frustrated magnets exhibit unusual critical behaviours: they display scaling laws accompanied by nonuniversal critical exponents. This suggests that these systems generically undergo very weak first-order phase transitions. Moreover, the different perturbative approaches used to investigate them are in conflict and fail to correctly reproduce their behaviour. Using a nonperturbative approach we explain the mismatch between the different perturbative approaches and account for the nonuniversal scaling observed.
