Within a spin wave analysis and a fermionic large-$n$ limit, it is shown that the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the checkerboard lattice may have different ground states, depending on the spin size S. Through an additional exchange interaction that corresponds to an intertetrahedra coupling, the stability of the N\'eel state …
