For arbitrary S, integer spins show a continuous 3D XY deconfinement transition in the small-anisotropy regime while half-integer spins stay in a U(1) Coulomb liquid; only S=3/2 retains a first-order transition at finite temperature because thermal monopoles round all continuous transitions into a 3

Hybrid Kitaev-Yao-Lee models on common lattices produce magnetic order in spins while preserving orbital topological order, and regain exact solvability when Yao-Lee and square-lattice couplings are equal and opposite.

Topological Phase Transitions and Their Thermodynamic Fate in Arbitrary-$S$ Pyrochlore Spin Ice

Frustrated magnetic order in hybrid Kitaev spin-orbital models
Hybrid Kitaev-Yao-Lee models on common lattices produce magnetic order in spins while preserving orbital topological order, and regain exact solvability when Yao-Lee and square-lattice couplings are equal and opposite.
