Gauge invariant accounts of the Higgs mechanism [PDF]
, 2011 The Higgs mechanism gives mass to Yang-Mills gauge bosons. According to the conventional wisdom, this happens through the spontaneous breaking of gauge symmetry.

Spontaneous breaking of a discrete time-translation symmetry [PDF]
, 2021 Spontaneous symmetry breaking is a ubiquitous concept and is well described in many textbooks of physics. However, direct observation of spontaneous symmetry breaking is lacking.

Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in 5D Conformally Invariant Gravity
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2016 We explore the possibility of the spontaneous symmetry breaking in 5D conformally invariant gravity, whose action consists of a scalar field nonminimally coupled to the curvature with its potential. Performing dimensional reduction via ADM decomposition,

A holographic perspective on phonons and pseudo-phonons
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We analyze the concomitant spontaneous breaking of translation and conformal symmetries by introducing in a CFT a complex scalar operator that acquires a spatially dependent expectation value.

Spontaneous supersymmetry breaking in inhomogeneous supersymmetric field theories and BPS vacua
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 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
SciPost Physics, 2022 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.

Fluctuation operators and spontaneous symmetry breaking [PDF]
Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2002 We develop an alternative approach to this field, which was to a large extent developed by Verbeure et al. It is meant to complement their approach, which is largely based on a noncommutative central limit theorem and coordinate space estimates. In contrast to that we deal directly with the limits of l-point truncated correlation functions and show ...

A zero-mode mechanism for spontaneous symmetry breaking in a turbulent von Kármán flow
New Journal of Physics, 2014 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

Bottom quark and tau lepton masses in a toy $$\textrm{SU}(6)$$ SU ( 6 ) model
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 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 .
