Probing the electroweak symmetry breaking history with gravitational waves
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We perform three dimensional lattice simulation of the electroweak symmetry breaking process through two-step vacuum-like phase transitions with one step being first-order. Our results show that: 1) when the electroweak symmetry breaking is driven by the

Radiative Corrections as the Origin of Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking [PDF]
, 1973 We investigate the possibility that radiative corrections may produce spontaneous symmetry breakdown in theories for which the semiclassical (tree) approximation does not indicate such breakdown.

Gauged Peccei-Quinn symmetry — A case of simultaneous breaking of SUSY and PQ symmetry
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Recently, a simple prescription to embed the global Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry into a gauged U(1) symmetry has been proposed. There, explicit breaking of the global PQ symmetry expected in quantum gravity are highly suppressed due to the gauged PQ ...

Self-organization and symmetry breaking in intestinal organoid development
Nature, 2019 Intestinal organoids are complex three-dimensional structures that mimic the cell-type composition and tissue organization of the intestine by recapitulating the self-organizing ability of cell populations derived from a single intestinal stem cell ...

Conformal symmetry and its breaking in two dimensional Nearly Anti-de-Sitter space [PDF]
, 2016 We study a two dimensional dilaton gravity system, recently examined by Almheiri and Polchinski, which describes near extremal black holes, or more generally, nearly $AdS_2$ spacetimes.

Categorical symmetry and noninvertible anomaly in symmetry-breaking and topological phase transitions [PDF]
Physical Review Research, 2019 For a zero-temperature Landau symmetry breaking transition in $n$-dimensional space that completely breaks a finite symmetry $G$, the critical point at the transition has the symmetry $G$.

Tunneling potentials for the tunneling action: gauge invariance
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We formulate a procedure to obtain a gauge-invariant tunneling rate at zero temperature using the recently developed tunneling potential approach. This procedure relies on a consistent power counting in gauge coupling and a derivative expansion.

Entanglement-enabled symmetry-breaking orders
SciPost Physics CoreA 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,

Spontaneously broken subsystem symmetries
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We investigate the spontaneous breaking of subsystem symmetries directly in the context of continuum field theories by calculating the correlation function of charged operators. Our methods confirm the lack of spontaneous symmetry breaking in some of the

New Journal of Physics, 2019 We theoretically perform a comprehensive analysis about the influences of the space-inversion symmetry breaking in graphene-based materials on the Andreev reflections (AR) in the normal-metal/superconductor (NS) and NSN heterojunctions.
