Translation invariance and continuous symmetries in two-dimensional continuum systems
نویسنده
چکیده
We reconsider the problem of absence of continuous symmetry breaking for systems of point particles in R. Assuming smoothness and suitable decay of the interaction, we show that each tempered Gibbs measure is invariant under translations. If the particles exhibit internal degrees of freedom with continuous symmetries, the latter are also preserved. The proof is elementary and avoids the use of superstability estimates.

Translation-invariance of two-dimensional Gibbsian systems of particles with internal degrees of freedom
The conservation of translational symmetry in two-dimensional systems with interaction is a classical subject of statistical mechanics. Here we establish such a result for Gibbsian systems of marked particles with two-body interaction, where the interesting cases of singular, hard-core and discontinuous interactions are included. In particular we thus show the conservation of translational symm...
متن کامل2 Noether symmetries for two - dimensional charged particle motion
We find the Noether point symmetries for non–relativistic two-dimensional charged particle motion. These symmetries are composed of a quasi–invariance transformation, a time–dependent rotation and a time–dependent spatial translation. The associated electromagnetic field satisfy a system of first–order linear partial differential equations. This system is solved exactly, yielding three classes ...
متن کاملProjective and coarse projective integration for problems with continuous symmetries
Temporal integration of equations possessing continuous symmetries (e.g. systems with translational invariance associated with traveling solutions and scale invariance associated with self-similar solutions) in a “co-evolving” frame (i.e. a frame which is co-traveling, co-collapsing or co-exploding with the evolving solution) leads to improved accuracy because of the smaller time derivative in ...
متن کاملSymmetry group, Hamiltonian equations and conservation laws of general three-dimensional anisotropic non-linear sourceless heat transfer equation
In this paper Lie point symmetries, Hamiltonian equations and conservation laws of general three-dimensional anisotropic non-linear sourceless heat transfer equation are investigated. First of all Lie symmetries are obtained by using the general method based on invariance condition of a system of differential equations under a prolonged vector field. Then the structure of symmetry ...
متن کاملTranslational Symmetry and Microscopic Constraints on Symmetry-Enriched Topological Phases: A View from the Surface
The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem and its higher-dimensional generalizations by Oshikawa and Hastings require that translationally invariant 2D spin systems with a half-integer spin per unit cell must either have a continuum of low energy excitations, spontaneously break some symmetries, or exhibit topological order with anyonic excitations. We establish a connection between these constraints and...
