Strain-induced order in highly frustrated magnets — •Mary Madelynn Nayga and Matthias Vojta — Institut für Theoretische Physik and Würzburg-Dresden Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat, Technische Universität Dresden, 01062 Dresden, Germany

One defining feature of highly frustrated magnets is a massively degenerate manifold of classical ground states. Here we study how inhomogeneous strain can lift this degeneracy and induce magnetic order in frustrated magnets. We provide explicit examples of strain-induced ordered states and characterize their observable properties, both static and dynamic.
