Two-component gap solitons with linear interconversion
We consider one-dimensional solitons in a binary Bose-Einstein condensate with linear coupling between the components, trapped in an optical-lattice potential. The interand intraspecies interactions may be either repulsive or attractive. The main effects considered here are spontaneous breaking of the symmetry between components in symmetric and antisymmetric solitons, and spatial splitting bet...
متن کاملSymmetry Breaking in Bose-Einstein Condensates
A gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) offers an ideal testing ground for studying symmetry breaking, because a trapped BEC system is in a mesoscopic regime, and situations exist under which symmetry breaking may or may not occur. Investigating this problem can explain why mean-field theories have been so successful in elucidating gaseous BEC systems and when manybody effects play a significa...
متن کاملMonopole Dominance for Dynamical Chiral-Symmetry Breaking in the Dual Ginzburg-Landau Theory
Using the effective potential formalism, we study dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (DχSB) in the dual Ginzburg-Landau (DGL) theory, where the color confinement is brought by monopole condensation. The effective potential as a function of infrared quark mass is found to have double-well structure, which leads to spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry. To examine the role of confinement, we di...
متن کاملSpontaneous interlayer coherence in double-layer quantum Hall systems: Symmetry-breaking interactions, in-plane fields, and phase solitons.
At strong magnetic fields double-layer two-dimensional-electron-gas systems can form an unusual broken symmetry state with spontaneous inter-layer phase coherence. The system can be mapped to an equivalent system of pseudospin 1/2 particles with pseudospin-dependent interactions and easyplane magnetic order. In this paper we discuss how the presence of a weak interlayer tunneling term alters th...
متن کاملSpontaneous supersymmetry breaking in large - N matrix models with slowly varying potential
We construct a class of matrix models, where supersymmetry (SUSY) is spontaneously broken at the matrix size N infinite. The models are obtained by dimensional reduction of matrix-valued SUSY quantum mechanics. The potential of the models is slowly varying, and the large-N limit is taken with the slowly varying limit. First, we explain our formalism, introducing an external field to detect spon...
