Entanglement-enabled symmetry-breaking orders [PDF]
SciPost Physics Core, 2022 A spontaneous symmetry-breaking order is conventionally described by a tensor-product wavefunction of some few-body clusters; some standard examples include the simplest ferromagnets and valence bond solids. We discuss a type of symmetry-breaking orders,

Covert symmetry breaking [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 Reduction from a higher-dimensional to a lower-dimensional field theory can display special features when the zero-level ground state has nontrivial dependence on the reduction coordinates.

Symmetry-Breaking Motility [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2005 Locomotion of bacteria by actin polymerization, and in vitro motion of spherical beads coated with a protein catalyzing polymerization, are examples of active motility. Starting from a simple model of forces locally normal to the surface of a bead, we construct a phenomenological equation for its motion.

``Induced'' Super-Symmetry Breaking with a Vanishing Vacuum Energy [PDF]
Nucl.Phys. B505 (1997) 123-138, 1996 A new mechanism for symmetry breaking is proposed which naturally avoids the constraints following from the usual theorems of symmetry breaking. In the context of super-symmetry, for example, the breaking may be consistent with a vanishing vacuum energy.

Realization of a spontaneous gauge and supersymmetry breaking vacuum [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 It is one of the major issues to realize a vacuum which breaks supersymmetry (SUSY) and R-symmetry, in a supersymmetric model. We study the model, where the same sector breaks the gauge symmetry and SUSY. In general, the SUSY breaking model without gauge

Symmetries of Symmetry Breaking Constraints [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Symmetry is an important feature of many constraint programs. We show that any symmetry acting on a set of symmetry breaking constraints can be used to break symmetry. Different symmetries pick out different solutions in each symmetry class. We use these observations in two methods for eliminating symmetry from a problem.

Probing the two-scale-factor universality hypothesis by exact rotation symmetry-breaking mechanism
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017 We probe the two-scale-factor universality hypothesis by evaluating, firstly explicitly and analytically at the one-loop order, the loop quantum corrections to the amplitude ratios for O(N) $$\lambda \phi ^{4}$$ λ ϕ 4 scalar field theories with rotation ...

ON THE SYMMETRY BREAKING PHENOMENON [PDF]
International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2006 We investigate the problem of symmetry breaking in the framework of dynamical systems with symmetry on a smooth manifold. Two cases will be analyzed: general and Hamiltonian dynamical systems. We give sufficient conditions for symmetry breaking in both cases.
