Detecting Broken PT-Symmetry
A fundamental problem in the theory of PT-invariant quantum systems is to determine whether a given system “respects” this symmetry or not. If not, the system usually develops non-real eigenvalues. It is shown in this contribution how to algorithmically detect the existence of complex eigenvalues for a given PT-symmetric matrix. The procedure uses classical results from stability theory which q...
متن کاملBroken symmetry revisited
In general, a physical system consists of a finite or infinite number of degrees of freedom which may or may not interact. The dynamics is prescribed by a set of evolution equations which follow from varying the action with respect to the different degrees of freedom. A symmetry then corresponds to a group of transformations on the space time coordinates and/or the degrees of freedom that leave...
متن کاملspontaneously-broken chiral symmetry
We present and discuss the properties and the main results of a cosmological model with a spontaneously-broken chiral symmetry. The model contains and relates dynamically, two spin-zero fields. The scalar field can provide the dynamical basis for inflation in the early universe. The pseudoscalar, Goldstone field can provide an early, small residual vacuum energy density, the absolute value of w...
متن کاملBroken Symmetry and Spacetime
The phenomenon of broken spacetime symmetry in the quantum theory of infinite systems seems to point toward an unorthodox ontology. The standard conception of the physical meaning of these symmetries, as changes in coordinates, conflicts with the apparent physical inequivalence of symmetry-related states. I argue that this apparent conflict is an artifact a subtle error in the extant account of...
متن کاملThe 1: 2 Mode Interaction in Rayleigh-BéNard convection with Weakly Broken midplane Symmetry
The effects of weak breaking of the midplane reflection symmetry on the 1:2 steady state mode interaction in Rayleigh–Bénard convection are discussed in a PDE setting. Effects of this type arise from the inclusion of non-Boussinesq terms or due to small differences in the boundary conditions at the top and bottom of the convecting layer. The latter provides the simplest realization, and capture...
