Abstract
The concept of frustration is investigated following an idea of Anderson. A simple, frustrated in Anderson's sense, nonrandom classical lattice spin system without competing interactions is discussed, which exhibits infinitely many equilibrium states at low temperature. The overlap distribution function is calculated exactly to be a delta function at zero.
