TL;DR
This paper investigates the 3-state Potts antiferromagnet on a hexagonal lattice using Monte Carlo simulations, confirming its disordered nature at all temperatures and measuring its ground-state entropy.
Contribution
It provides the first detailed Monte Carlo analysis of the model's thermodynamic properties and confirms the persistent disorder across all temperatures.
Findings
Model remains disordered at all T>=0
Measured ground-state entropy density
Confirmed absence of phase transition
Abstract
We study the 3-state hexagonal-lattice Potts antiferromagnet by a Monte Carlo simulation using the Wang-Swendsen-Kotecky cluster algorithm. We study the staggered susceptibility and the correlation length, and we confirm that this model is disordered at all temperatures T>=0. We also measure the ground-state entropy density.
