چکیده

We show that a momentum operator of a translational symmetry may not commute with an internal symmetry operator in the presence of a topological soliton in nonrelativistic theories. As a striking consequence, there appears a coupled Nambu-Goldstone mode with a quadratic dispersion consisting of translational and internal zero modes in the vicinity of a domain wall in an O(3) σ model, a magnetic domain wall in ferromagnets with an easy axis.

Counting rule for Nambu-Goldstone modes in nonrelativistic systems.

The counting rule for Nambu-Goldstone modes is discussed using Mori's projection operator method in nonrelativistic systems at zero and finite temperatures. We show that the number of Nambu-Goldstone modes is equal to the number of broken charges, Q(a), minus half the rank of the expectation value of [Q(a), Q(b)].

Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking and Nambu-Goldstone Bosons in Quantum Many-Body Systems

Spontaneous symmetry breaking is a general principle that constitutes the underlying concept of a vast number of physical phenomena ranging from ferromagnetism and superconductivity in condensed matter physics to the Higgs mechanism in the standard model of elementary particles. I focus on manifestations of spontaneously broken symmetries in systems that are not Lorentz invariant, which include...

Flavor Symmetry as a Spontaneously Broken Discrete Permutation Symmetry Embedded in Color

A new mechanism for breaking an internal symmetry spontaneously is discussed, which is intermediate between the Nambu-Goldstone and Wigner modes of symmetry breaking. Here the qq̄ sea takes the role of the vacuum of the Nambu-Goldstone case. Flavor symmetry becomes a discrete permutation symmetry of the valence quarks with respect to the sea quarks, which can be spontaneously broken without gene...

Incompatibility Of Simultaneous Non-Linear Realizations Of Scale Symmetry and Supersymmetry

Simultaneous nonlinear realizations of supersymmetry and softly broken scale and chiral symmetries are investigated. To guarantee Nambu-Goldstone realizations of the symmetries, the Goldstino decay constant is forced to vary as the explicit soft scale and chiral symmetry breaking parameters. Consequently, it must vanish in the chiral limit and the simultaneous nonlinear realizations of the supe...

0 Effective Lagrangians , Symmetry Currents and Spontaneously Broken Extended Supersymmetry

The effective Lagrangian governing the self interactions of the Nambu-Goldstone fermions associated with spontaneously broken extended supersym-metry as well as their coupling to matter is presented and scrutinized. The resulting currents associated with R-symmetry, supersymmetry and space-time translations are constructed and seen to form a supermultiplet structure.
