Abstract
The Ising model is studied on a new type of lattice which is named the rectangular-triangular lattice. The critical temperature for the ferromagnetic lattice is calculated exactly and it is shown that the antiferromagnetic lattice does not order at any temperature. Ground state properties are investigated and some features of frustration on the antiferromagnetic Ising lattice outlined.
