The frustration of being odd: how boundary conditions can destroy local order

The frustration of being odd: how boundary conditions can destroy local order

A central tenant in the classification of phases is that boundary conditions cannot affect the bulk properties of a system. In this work, we show striking, yet puzzling, evidence of a clear violation of this assumption. We use the prototypical example of an XYZ chain with no external field in a ring...
