A zero-mode mechanism for spontaneous symmetry breaking in a turbulent von Kármán flow
We suggest that the dynamical spontaneous symmetry breaking reported in a turbulent swirling flow at Re = 40 000 by Cortet et al (2010 Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 214501) can be described through a continuous one parameter family transformation (amounting to a

Spontaneous supersymmetry breaking in inhomogeneous supersymmetric field theories and BPS vacua
We study spontaneous supersymmetry breaking in inhomogeneous extensions of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetric field theory models in 4-dimensions.

A model of persistent breaking of continuous symmetry
We consider a UV-complete field-theoretic model in general dimensions, including $d=2+1$, that exhibits spontaneous breaking of continuous symmetry, persisting to arbitrarily large temperatures.

Bottom quark and tau lepton masses in a toy $$\textrm{SU}(6)$$ SU ( 6 ) model
We study a toy $$\textrm{SU}(6)$$ SU ( 6 ) model with the symmetry breaking pattern of the extended 331 symmetry of $$\textrm{SU}(3)_c \otimes \textrm{SU}(3)_W \otimes \textrm{U}(1)_X$$ SU ( 3 ) c ⊗ SU ( 3 ) W ⊗ U ( 1 ) X .

One of the most powerful ideas of modern theoretical physics is the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking. It is at the basis of most of the recent achievements in the description of phase transitions in Statistical Mechanics as well as of collective phenomena in solid state physics.

Non-Hermitian non-Abelian topological insulators with PT symmetry
We study a non-Hermitian non-Abelian topological insulator preserving PT symmetry, where the non-Hermitian term represents nonreciprocal hoppings. As it increases, a spontaneous PT symmetry breaking transition occurs in the perfect-flat band model from a

Spontaneous breaking of non-relativistic scale symmetry
We analyze the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking of scale invariance in Galilean invariant field theories. We show that the existence of a dynamic gapless dilaton mode depends on whether the U(1) particle number or the Galilean boost symmetry ...

Homochirality, the phenomenon by which one of two virtually identical (non-superimposable mirror images) compounds is favored over the other in the chemistry of life, has been regarded as a requisite for the emergence of all living things on earth ...
