Finite-temperature phase transitions in the quantum fully frustrated transverse-field Ising models

The quantum antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Ising model on a triangular lattice and analogous fully frustrated Ising model on a square lattice with quantum fluctuation induced by the application of the transverse magnetic field are studied at finite temperatures by constructing an exact mapping onto a purely classical model with a more complex interaction. It is shown that in weak fields the temperatures of the phase transitions separating the critical phase from the ordered and disordered phases in both models are proportional to the magnitude of the field.
