Abstract

A model of two coupled complex scalar fields is studied at finite temperature and under an external magnetic field. The results are obtained in the context of the nonperturbative method of the optimized perturbation theory and contrasted with those obtained in perturbation theory and in the one-loop approximation. The emergence of phenomena related to inverse symmetry breaking and symmetry nonrestoration are analyzed.
