Spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) is a property of Hamiltonian equilibrium states which, in the thermodynamic limit, retain a finite average value of an order parameter even after a field coupled to it is adiabatically turned off. In the…
Rotating turbulence is ubiquitous in nature. Previous works suggest that such turbulence could be described as an ensemble of interacting inertial waves across a wide range of length scales. For turbulence in macroscopic quantum…
We develop a finite-temperature perturbation theory for quasi-one-dimensional quantum spin systems, in the manner suggested by H.J. Schulz (1996) and use this formalism to study their dynamical response. The corrections to the random-phase…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking of a U(1) symmetry in interacting systems leads to superfluidity of a corresponding conserved charge. We generalize the superfluidity to systems with U(1) symmetries acting on both matter fields and 2D spatial…
We argue that in an inflationary cosmology a consequence of the lack of time translational invariance is that spontaneous breaking of a continuous symmetry and Goldstone's theorem \emph{do not} imply the existence of \emph{massless}…

Feynman's "no-node" theorem states that the conventional many-body ground-state wavefunctions of bosons in the coordinate representation is positive-definite. This implies that time-reversal symmetry cannot be spontaneously broken. In this…
