We study the effect of symmetry breaking perturbations in the one-dimensional SU(4) spin-orbital model. We allow the exchange in spin ($J_1$) and orbital ($J_2$) channel to be different and thus reduce the symmetry to SU(2) $\otimes$ SU(2).…

Nematic superconductors are characterized by an apparent crystal symmetry breaking that results in the anisotropy of the in-plane upper critical magnetic field $H_{c2}$. The symmetry breaking is usually attributed to the strain of the…

We consider the Dirichlet problem for the Schr\"odinger-H\'enon system $$ -\Delta u + \mu_1 u = |x|^{\alpha}\partial_u F(u,v),\quad \qquad -\Delta v + \mu_2 v = |x|^{\alpha}\partial_v F(u,v) $$ in the unit ball $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N,…

In this paper we study qualitative properties of global minimizers of the Ginzburg-Landau energy which describes light-matter interaction in the theory of nematic liquid crystals near the Friedrichs transition. This model is depends on two…

The effect of explicit chiral-symmetry breaking on inhomogeneous chiral phases is studied within a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with nonzero current quark mass. Generalizing an earlier result obtained in the chiral limit, we show within a…

Entanglement asymmetry is an observable in quantum systems, constructed using quantum-information methods, suited to detecting symmetry breaking in states -- possibly out of equilibrium -- relative to a subsystem. In this paper we define…

The driving forces of chiral active particles and deformations of cells are often modeled by spatially inhomogeneous but temporally periodic driving forces. Such inhomogeneous oscillatory driving forces have only recently been proposed in…

The principal axes of the recently discovered anisotropic phases of 2D electron systems at high Landau level occupancy are consistently oriented relative to the crystal axes of the host semiconductor. The nature of the native rotational…

The magnetization process of the spin-1 Heisenberg dimer model with axial and rhombic single-ion anisotropy terms is particularly investigated in connection with recent experimental high-field measurements performed on the single-crystal…

We establish small energy H\"{o}lder bounds for minimizers $u_\varepsilon$ of \[E_\varepsilon (u):=\int_\Omega W(\nabla u)+ \frac{1}{\varepsilon^2} \int_\Omega f(u),\] where $W$ is a positive definite quadratic form and the potential $f$…

We consider problems related to the asymptotic minimization of eigenvalues of anisotropic harmonic oscillators in the plane. In particular we study Riesz means of the eigenvalues and the trace of the corresponding heat kernels. The…

We study holographic entanglement entropy in 5-dimensional charged black brane geometry obtained from Einstein-SU(2)Yang-Mills theory defined in asymptotically AdS space. This gravity system undergoes second order phase transition near its…

Let $A$ and $A'$ be two circular annuli and let $\rho$ be a radial metric defined in the annulus $A'$. Consider the class $\mathcal H_\rho$ of $\rho-$harmonic mappings between $A$ and $A'$. It is proved recently by Iwaniec, Kovalev and…

The study of singular perturbations of the Dirichlet energy is at the core of the phenomenological-description paradigm in soft condensed matter. Being able to pass to the limit plays a crucial role in the understanding of the…

We examine one- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) models of linearly coupled lattices of the discrete-nonlinear-Schr{\"{o}}dinger type. Analyzing ground states of the systems with equal powers in the two components, we find a…

For a zero-temperature Landau symmetry breaking transition in $n$-dimensional space that completely breaks a finite symmetry $G$, the critical point at the transition has the symmetry $G$. In this paper, we show that the critical point also…

Puzzled by the indication of a new critical theory for the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model with a spatially staggered anisotropy on the square lattice as suggested in \cite{Wenzel08}, we re-investigate the phase transition of this model induced…

We study two dimensional $\mathcal{N} = (2, 2)$ Landau-Ginzburg models with tensor valued superfields with the aim of constructing large central charge superconformal field theories which are solvable using large $N$ techniques. We…

We examine holographic theories where Lifshitz symmetry is broken with spatial anisotropy. In particular, we focus on the conditions imposed by the null energy condition, and demonstrate that it is possible to have unusual anisotropic fixed…

A new set of infinitesimal transformations generalizing scale invariance for strongly anisotropic critical systems is considered. It is shown that such a generalization is possible if the anisotropy exponent \theta =2/N, with N=1,2,3 ...…
