The classification of corank one forced symmetry breaking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Forced-symmetry breaking occurs when a bifurcation equation changes its symmetry when a parameter varies. It is to be contrasted with the phenomena of spontaneous symmetry breaking when the symmetry of the equations are kept constant but the symmetry of

Dilaton in scalar QFT: a no-go theorem in 4-epsilon and 3-epsilon dimensions

open access: yesSciPost Physics, 2022
Spontaneous scale invariance breaking and the associated Goldstone boson, the dilaton, is investigated in renormalizable, unitary, interacting non-supersymmetric scalar field theories in $4-\varepsilon$ dimensions.

Asymmetric balance in symmetry breaking

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is central to our understanding of physics and explains many natural phenomena, from cosmic scales to subatomic particles.

Spontaneous symmetry breaking and chiral symmetry [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2000
In this introductory lecture, some basic features of the spontaneous symmetry breaking are discussed. More specifically, $σ$-model, non-linear realization, and some examples of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the non-relativistic system are discussed in details.

Spontaneous Breaking of Rotational Symmetry in Superconductors [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2002
We show that homogeneous superconductors with broken spin/isospin symmetry lower their energy via a transition to a novel superconducting state where the Fermi-surfaces are deformed to a quasi-ellipsoidal form at zero total momentum of Cooper pairs. In this state, the gain in the condensation energy of the pairs dominates over the loss in the kinetic ...

Spontaneous-Symmetry-Breaking Charge Separation Induced by Pseudo-Jahn–Teller Distortion in Organic Photovoltaic Material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The driving force of charge separation in the initial photovoltaic conversion process is theoretically investigated using ITIC, a nonfullerene acceptor material for organic photovoltaic devices.

On the relationship between gauge dependence and IR divergences in the ℏ-expansion of the effective potential

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
Perturbative calculations of the effective potential evaluated at a broken minimum, V min, are plagued by difficulties. It is hard to get a finite and gauge invariant result for V min.

Anomaly inflow, accidental symmetry, and spontaneous symmetry breaking

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We consider the 6d (1,0) SCFT on a stack of N M5-branes probing a ℂ2/ℤ2 singularity. In particular, we study its compactifications to four dimensions on a smooth genus-g Riemann surface with non-trivial flavor flux, yielding a family of 4d CFTs.

Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in Quantum Systems: Emergence or Reduction? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Beginning with Anderson (1972), spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) in infinite quantum systems is often put forward as an example of (asymptotic) emergence in physics, since in theory no finite system should display it. Even the correspondence between

Spontaneous breaking of the BRST symmetry in the ABJM theory

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2014
In this paper, we will analyze the ghost condensation in the ABJM theory. We will perform our analysis in N=1 superspace. We show that in the Delbourgo–Jarvis–Baulieu–Thierry–Mieg gauge the spontaneous breaking of BRST symmetry can occur in the ABJM ...
