Generalized Symmetry Breaking Tasks
Processes in a concurrent system need to coordinate using an underlying shared memory or a messagepassing system in order to solve agreement tasks such as, for example, consensus or set agreement. However, coordination is often needed to break the symmetry of processes that are initially in the same state, for example, to get exclusive access to a shared resource, to get distinct names, or to e...
متن کاملSpontaneous breaking of rotational symmetry in superconductors.
We show that homogeneous superconductors with broken spin/isospin symmetry lower their energy via a transition to a novel superconducting state where the Fermi surfaces are deformed to a quasiellipsoidal form at zero total momentum of Cooper pairs. In this state, the gain in the condensation energy of the pairs dominates over the loss in the kinetic energy caused by the lowest order (quadrupole...
متن کاملReduction theory for symmetry breaking
We formulate Euler-Poincaré equations for systems with broken symmetry. In particular, we consider the action of a Lie group O (the broken symmetry) on a manifold M , thereby extending the well known case when M is a vector space. In condensed matter physics, M is known as the order parameter space and we provide several examples of how the present treatment applies in this framework, with spec...
متن کاملRotational Symmetry Breaking in Multi-Matrix Models
We consider a class of multi-matrix models with an action which is O(D)-invariant, where D is the number of N × N Hermitian matrices Xμ, μ = 1, . . . , D. The action is a function of all the elementary symmetric functions of the matrix Tμν = Tr(XμXν)/N . We address the issue whether the O(D) symmetry is spontaneously broken when the size N of the matrices goes to infinity. The phase diagram in ...
متن کاملSurface topography and rotational symmetry breaking.
The surface electroclinic effect, which is a rotation of the molecular director in the substrate plane proportional to an electric field E applied normal to the substrate, requires both a chiral environment and C(2) (or lower) rotational symmetry about E. The two symmetries typically are created in tandem by manipulating the surface topography, a process that conflates their effects. Here we us...
