• Magnetic order in geometrically frustrated magnets.
  
• Itinerant frustrated systems and novel superconductivity.
  
• Spin glasses and random magnets.
  
• Coupling between lattice, orbital and charge degrees of freedom.
  
• Exotic phenomena induced by macroscopic degeneracy.
  
• Artificial and molecular frustrated magnets.
