Exotic Phases In Geometrically Frustrated Quantum Magnets

Quantum magnetic materials provide pathways to exotic spin-disordered phases. We study two broad classes of quantum spin systems and their ground states. The first class is that of spin-dimer systems, which form valence-bond-solid states. In such systems, competition between interactions among the d...
