Symmetries of Symmetry Breaking Constraints

open access: yes, 2010
Symmetry is an important feature of many constraint programs. We show that any problem 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. This simple but powerful idea can be used in a number of different ways.

Forced symmetry breaking perturbations for periodic solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Using the formalism defined by R. Lauterbach and M. Roberts [21], we develop a geometric approach for the problem of forced symmetry breaking for periodic orbits in G-equivariant systems of ODE's.

Time-reversal symmetry breaking in the noncentrosymmetric Zr3Ir superconductor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We report the discovery of Zr3Ir as a structurally different type of unconventional noncentrosymmetric superconductor (with Tc=2.3 K), here investigated mostly via muon-spin rotation/relaxation (μSR) techniques.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Bootstrap Dynamical Symmetry Breaking

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, 2013
Despite the emergence of a 125 GeV Higgs-like particle at the LHC, we explore the possibility of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking by strong Yukawa coupling of very heavy new chiral quarks

ON THE SYMMETRY BREAKING PHENOMENON [PDF]

open access: yesInternational 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.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Gauge invariant accounts of the Higgs mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

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
