Second-order phase transitions are governed by spontaneous symmetry breaking, which yield collective excitations with a gapless spectrum called Nambu-Goldstone (NG) modes. While NG modes in conservative systems are propagating excitations,…
Influence of the Nambu-Goldstone (NG) mode on the energy-weighted sum (EWS) of the excitation strengths is analyzed, within the random-phase approximation (RPA). When a certain symmetry is broken at the mean-field level, a NG mode emerges…

Multi-gap superconductors exhibit interesting properties. In an $N$-gap superconductor, we have in general $U(1)^N$ phase invariance. This multiple-phase invariance is partially or totally spontaneously broken in a superconductor. The…

The Bethe--Salpeter equation for pion fluctuations off the chiral soliton in the Nambu--Jona--Lasinio model is constructed. By Goldstone's theorem this equation has rotational and translational zero modes because the classical soliton is a…
We simulate the Gross-Neveu model in 2+1 dimensions at nonzero baryon density (chemical potential mu =/= 0). It is possible to formulate this model with a real action and therefore to perform standard hybrid Monte Carlo simulations with mu…
Goldstone's theorem and its extension to pseudo-Goldstone (PG) modes have profound implications across diverse areas of physics, from quantum chromodynamics to quantum magnetism. PG modes emerge from accidental degeneracies lifted by…
