Covert symmetry breaking [PDF]
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.

Fast self-healing in a layered molecular crystal mediated by stress-induced symmetry breaking [PDF]
In recent years, symmetry-breaking has emerged as a powerful tool for significantly altering various physical properties in 2D layered materials. However, the breaking of symmetry by means of mechanical stress in organic crystals remains elusive.

Ultrafast probing of isotope-induced explicit symmetry breaking in ethylene [PDF]
Symmetry governs nature’s laws, yet many of the natural phenomena occur due to the breakdown of symmetry. Here, we show how isotope-induced inversion symmetry breaking influences ultrafast photoisomerization processes in ethylene.

Symmetries and symmetry breaking [PDF]
In understanding the world of matter, the introduction of symmetry principles following experimentation or using the predictive power of symmetry principles to guide experimentation is most profound. The conservation of energy, linear momentum, angular momentum, charge, and CPT involve fundamental symmetries.

Symmetry and symmetry breaking in science and arts
In this review article, symmetry and symmetry breaking are considered as complementary principles in science and arts. It starts with symmetry and symmetry breaking in early world views of nature and art.

A well-known result by Palamidessi tells us that πmix(the π-calculus with mixed choice) is more expressive than πsep(its subset with only separate choice). The proof of this result analyses their different expressive power concerning leader election in symmetric networks.

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 .

Symmetry Breaking in Graphs [PDF]
A labeling of the vertices of a graph G, $\phi :V(G) \rightarrow \{1,\ldots,r\}$, is said to be $r$-distinguishing provided no automorphism of the graph preserves all of the vertex labels. The distinguishing number of a graph G, denoted by $D(G)$, is the minimum $r$ such that $G$ has an $r$-distinguishing labeling.

Effects of symmetry-breaking on electromagnetic backscattering
Systems with a discrete rotational symmetry $$2\pi /n$$ 2 π / n where $$n\ge 3$$ n ≥ 3 that also have electromagnetic duality symmetry exhibit zero backscattering.

Selection rules for breaking selection rules
Floquet systems often exhibit dynamical symmetries (DS) that govern the time-dependent dynamics and result in selection rules. When a DS is broken, selection rule deviations are expected.
