We study, at T = 0, the anomalies in the magnetization curve of the S = 1 two-leg ladder with frustrated interactions. We focus mainly on the existence of the M = M-s/2 plateau, where M-s is the saturation magnetization. We report the results using the degenerate perturbation theory and the density matrix renormalization group, which lead to consistent conclusion with each other. We also touch on the M = M-s/4 and (3/4)M-s plateaux and cusps.
