## TL;DR

This paper uses Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the phase transitions of three-dimensional antiferromagnetic O(3) spin models, revealing that all observed transitions are of first order.

## Contribution

It provides a detailed Monte Carlo analysis of antiferromagnetic O(3) models in 3D, clarifying the nature of their phase transitions.

## Key findings

- All phase transitions studied are first order
- Finite Size Scaling confirms first-order nature
- Insights into vacua properties of the models

## Abstract

We study several antiferromagnetic formulations of the O(3) spin model in three dimensions by means of Monte Carlo simulations. We discuss about the vacua properties and analyze the phase transitions. Using Finite Size Scaling analysis we conclude that all phase transitions found are of first order
