Rotational bands are commonplace in the spectra of atomic nuclei. Inspired by early descriptions of these bands by quadrupole deformations of a liquid drop, Elliott constructed a discrete nucleon representations of $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ from…

Ab initio theory describes nuclei from a fully microscopic formulation, with no presupposition of collective degrees of freedom, yet signatures of clustering and rotation nonetheless arise. We can therefore look to ab initio theory for an…
We consider several variants of SU(3) partial dynamical symmetry in relation to quadrupole shapes in nuclei. Explicit construction of Hamiltonians with such property is presented in the framework of the interacting boson model (IBM),…
A collective vector-boson model with broken SU(3) symmetry, in which the ground state band and the lowest $\gamma$ band belong to the same irreducible representation but are non-degenerate, is applied to several deformed even-even nuclei.…
The possibility of the appearance of the C$_{4}$ symmetry in the rotational bands is studied within the particle-rotor model. Allowing for a slight triaxiality of the rotor it is shown that the lowest states of the system for a sufficiently…
The rotational behaviour of T=0 and T=1 bands in the odd-odd N=Z nucleus 62Ga is studied theoretically using the spherical shell model (laboratory frame) and the cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky model (intrinsic frame). Both models give a good…
