New Universality Class in three dimensions: the Antiferromagnetic $RP^2$ model

Abstract
We present the results of a Monte Carlo simulation of the $RP^2$ model in three dimensions with negative coupling. We observe a second order phase transition between the disordered phase and an antiferromagnetic, unfrustrated, ordered one. We measure, with a Finite Size Scaling analysis, the thermal exponent, obtaining $\nu=0.784(8)$. We have found two magnetic-type relevant operators whose related $\eta$ exponents are $0.038(2)$ and $1.338(8)$ respectively.
