Abstract
We present the classical phase diagram of a multiple-spin exchange hamiltonian involving up to five-particle exchange. Schwinger-boson (mean field theory) calculations confirm the classical picture of competing ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases, and suggest that the frustration induced by four-particle exchange might destroy long range order.
