We investigate phase transitions of XY model on a three-layer triangular lattice by assuming that the intralayer interactions on the first and the third layer are antiferromagnetic and the one on the second layer ferromagnetic. We use Monte Carlo simulations and find that there are two critical...

We investigate an XY model on a four-layer triangular lattice with two ferromagnetic layers sandwiched by two antiferromagnetic layers by using Monte Carlo simulations. The chirality on the middle layers with ferromagnetic intralayer interactions shows very steep increase as temperature...

We investigate phase transitions of the XY model on a two-layer triangular lattice when interactions are competing, by using Monte Carlo simulations. For the system with a ferromagnetic interaction on one of two layers and an antiferromagnetic interaction on the other layer, we find two...
