Symmetry often governs the laws of nature, and breaking symmetry accompanies a new order parameter and emergent observable phenomena. Herein, we focus on broken Parity (P)-Time (T) symmetry, which lifts the Kramers' degeneracy, and thus,…
External and internal factors may cause a system's parameter to vary with time before it stabilizes. This drift induces a regime shift when the parameter crosses a bifurcation. Here, we study the case of an infinite dimensional system: a…
