Abstract
We investigate the properties of the $XY$ pyrochlore antiferromagnet with infinite local $\ensuremath{\langle}111\ensuremath{\rangle}$ planar anisotropy. We identify the ground states and show that the configurational ground state entropy is subextensive. By computing the free energy due to harmonic fluctuations and by carrying out Monte Carlo simulations, we find that the model exhibits thermal order-by-disorder leading to low-temperature long-range order consisting of discrete magnetic domains. In doing so, we set aside doubts that order-by-disorder survives in the thermodynamic limit in this model. We compute the spin wave spectrum and show that thermal and quantum fluctuations select the same magnetic structure. With a previously unreported finite-size scaling analysis of Monte Carlo data, we confirm that the transition is first order for the $XY$ model. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we find that the state selected by thermal fluctuations in this $XY$ pyrochlore antiferromagnet can survive the addition of sufficiently weak nearest-neighbor pseudo-dipolar interactions or long-range dipolar interactions to the spin Hamiltonian. Quite interestingly, the resulting state selected by thermal order-by-disorder is metastable below some temperature. We discuss our results in relation to the Er${}_{2}$Ti${}_{2}$O${}_{7}$ and Er${}_{2}$Sn${}_{2}$O${}_{7}$ pyrochlore antiferromagnets.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
