The frustrated magnet SrCu2(BO3)2 exhibits a quantum phase transition under high pressure.
Without pressure this material is well described by the two-dimensional Shastry-Sutherland model with parameters close to a phase transition towards a ground state of singlets on empty plaquettes.
This state is therefore the natural candidate for the high-pressure phase.
However, it has also been suggested
[1] that a different plaquette phase, where singlets reside on the full plaquettes containing a diagonal bond, is realized in SrCu2(BO3)2.
In this work we use high-order series expansions and infinite projected entangled pair states (iPEPS) to investigate the interplay between empty and full plaquette phases in an extended Shastry-Sutherland model.
