9. According to the dynamic mean field calculation based on the single-band Hubbard model, frustration can result in a similar metal-nonmetal crossover behavior at high T. It is likely that the generic magnetic frustration plays an important role in this crossover behavior: A. Georges et al.., Rev. Mod. Phys. 68, 13 (1996).
