Symmetry Breaking in Biology [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2009
Symmetry breaking is essential for cell movement, polarity, and developmental patterning. Amplification of initial asymmetry is key to the conserved mechanisms involved.

Observation of parity-time symmetry breaking in a single-spin system [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2018
Breaking symmetry with single spins The energetics of quantum systems are typically described by Hermitian Hamiltonians. The exploration of non-Hermitian physics in classical parity-time (PT)–symmetric systems has provided fertile theoretical and ...

Symmetry Restoration and Breaking at Finite Temperature: An Introductory Review

open access: yesSymmetry, 2020
Symmetries at finite temperature are of great importance to understand dynamics of spontaneous symmetry breaking phenomena, especially phase transitions in early Universe.

Tunneling potentials for the tunneling action: gauge invariance

open access: yesJournal 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.

Symmetries and symmetry-breaking in arithmetic graphs

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
In this paper, we study symmetries and symmetry-breaking of the arithmetic graph of a composite number m, denoted by Am. We first study some properties such as the distance between vertices, the degree of a vertex and the number of twin classes in the arithmetic graphs.

Breaking Symmetry on Time [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2007
The habenular nuclei are a conserved relay center of telencephalic function, and they display bilateral asymmetry in many vertebrates. How this asymmetry is constructed in response to local lateralized cues remains poorly understood. A paper by Aizawa et al.

Division algebraic symmetry breaking

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2022
Reframing certain well-known particle models in terms of normed division algebras leads to two new results for BSM physics.(1) We identify a sequence of complex structures which induces a cascade of breaking symmetries: Spin(10) ↦ Pati-Salam ↦ Left-Right

A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Boundary Symmetry Breaking in CFT and the string order parameter

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We consider the ground state of a one-dimensional critical quantum system carrying a global symmetry in the bulk, which is explicitly broken by its boundary conditions. We probe the system via a string-order parameter, showing how it detects the symmetry
