The method of effective interaction, traditionally used in the framework of an harmonic oscillator basis, is applied to the hyperspherical formalism of few-body nuclei (A=3-6). The separation of the hyperradial part leads to a state…
We study an extended Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model that permits a transition to a deformed phase with a broken continuous symmetry. Unlike simpler models, one sees a persistent zero-frequency Goldstone mode past the transition point into the…

We describe the properties of complex nuclei, such as the Sn isotopes with mass numbers A = 100 - 132, in terms of the free nucleon--nucleon interaction as obtained from meson--exchange theory. This amounts to first calculating an effective…
