We present possible manifestations of octahedral and tetrahedral symmetries in nuclei. These symmetries are associated with the OhD and TdD double point groups. Both of them have very characteristic finger-prints in terms of the nucleonic…
In $3d$ Chern-Simons theory, there is a discrete one-form symmetry, whose symmetry group is isomorphic to the center of the gauge group. We study the 't Hooft anomaly associated to this discrete one-form symmetry in theories with generic…
We study clustering in a stochastic system of particles sliding down a fluctuating surface in one and two dimensions. In steady state, the density-density correlation function is a scaling function of separation and system size.This scaling…
We propose a description of cluster states in nuclei in terms of representations of unitary algebras U(n+1), where n is the number of space degrees of freedom. Within this framework, a variety of situations including both vibrational and…

The possible existence of shape-coexisting nuclear configurations with tetrahedral symmetry is receiving an increasing attention due to unprecedented nuclear structure properties, in particular in terms of the exotic 4-fold nucleonic level…
In this study, we consider one-dimension (1D) quantum spin systems with the translation and discrete symmetries (spin reversal, space inversion and time reversal symmetries). By combining the continuous U(1) symmetry with the discrete…

Classifying the symmetries of the scalar sector in multi-Higgs-doublet models is the main focus of this thesis. We have found certain symmetries that are always broken in models with more than two doublets, which we name "frustrated…
We investigate the self-organization of point-particles with short-range interactions modeled via simple 1D and 2D Hubbard-like models. We show how various properties emerge such as, boson-like ordering leading to topological structures in…
We study the appearance and properties of cluster crystals (solids in which the unit cell is occupied by a cluster of particles) in a two-dimensional system of self-propelled active Brownian particles with repulsive interactions.…
$\alpha$-cluster correlations in the ground states of $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O are studied. Because of the $\alpha$ correlations, the intrinsic states of $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O have triangle and tetrahedral shapes, respectively. The…
The Cluster Shell Model (CSM)describes light nuclei in terms of $k-\alpha$ particles and $x$ extra nucleons, in which the extra nucleon move in the deformed field generated by the geometric configuration of $\alpha$-particles. We present…
In this experimental work, the thermodynamics and self-organization of classical two-dimensional Coulomb clusters are studied as a function of the cluster size. The experiments are carried out in a DC glow discharge Argon plasma in the…
Real-world systems in epidemiology, social sciences, power transportation, economics and engineering are often described as multilayer networks. Here we first define and compute the symmetries of multilayer networks, and then study the…
The assembly of colloids in nematic liquid crystals via topological defects has been extensively studied for spherical particles, and investigations of other colloid shapes have revealed a wide array of new assembly behaviors. We show,…
The relation of the shell, collective and cluster models of the atomic nuclei is discussed from the viewpoint of symmetries. In the fifties the U(3) symmetry was found as their common part for a single shell problem. For multi major-shell…
We study a self-bound dense object in the hard wall model. We consider a spherically symmetric dense object which is characterized by its radial density distribution and non-uniform but spherically symmetric chiral condensate. For this we…
We investigate a discrete model consisting of self-propelled particles that obey simple interaction rules. We show that this model can self-organize and exhibit coherent localized solutions in one- and in two-dimensions.In one-dimension,…
