We study the finite temperature symmetry behaviour of O(N_1) \times O(N_2) scalar models on the lattice and we prove that at sufficiently high temperatures and in arbitrary dimensions their full symmetry is always restored or, equivalently,…
We review how the phenomena of inverse symmetry breaking (and symmetry nonrestoration) may arise in the context of relativistic as well as nonrelativistic multi-scalar field theories. We discuss how the consideration of thermal effects on…
We study $D$-dimensional gauge theory with an extra dimension of a circle at finite temperature. We mainly focus on the expectation value of the gauge field for the direction of the extra dimension, which is the order parameter of the gauge…
While it is possible to find examples of field theories with a spontaneously broken symmetry at high temperature, in renormalizable supersymmetric models any internal symmetry gets always restored. Recently, a counterexample was suggested…
A model of two coupled complex scalar fields is studied at finite temperature and under an external magnetic field. The results are obtained in the context of the nonperturbative method of the optimized perturbation theory and contrasted…
We discuss the question of inverse symmetry breaking at non-zero temperature using the exact renormalization group. We study a two-scalar theory and concentrate on the nature of the phase transition during which the symmetry is broken. We…
It is by now well known that symmetries may be broken at high temperature. However,in renormalizable supersymmetric theories any internal symmetry gets always restored. In nonrenormalizable theories the situation is far less simple. We…
The status of internal symmetry breaking at high temperature in supersymmetric models is reviewed. This phenomenon could solve some well known cosmological problems, such as the domain wall, monopole and false vacuum problems.
We discuss the (non)-restoration of global and local symmetries at high temperature. First, we analyze a two-scalar model with $Z_2 \times Z_2$ symmetry using the exact renormalization group. We conclude that inverse symmetry breaking is…
The optimized linear $\delta$-expansion is applied to multi-field $O(N_1) \times O(N_2)$ scalar theories at high temperatures. Using the imaginary time formalism the thermal masses are evaluated perturbatively up to order $\delta^2$ which…
In a 4D four-fermion model we study the dynamical restoration of Lorentz and CPT symmetries at finite temperature. We evaluate the gap equation both at zero and at finite temperature and observe that, depending on the parameters of the…
We investigate the effective potential for a scalar $\Phi^{4}$ theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking at finite temperature. All 'daisy' and 'super daisy' diagrams are summed up and the properties of the corresponding gap eqation are…
It is generally believed that internal symmetries are necessarily restored at high temperature in supersymmetric theories. We provide simple and natural counterexamples to this no-go theorem for systems having a net background charge. We…
We make a Monte Carlo study of the coupled two-scalar $\lambda\phi^2_1\phi^2_2$ model in four dimensions at finite temperature. We find no trace of Inverse Symmetry Breaking for values of the renormalized parameters for which perturbation…
Scale invariant theories which contain (in $4-D$) a four index field strength are considered. The integration of the equations of motion of these $4-index$ field strength gives rise to scale symmetry breaking. The phenomena of mass…
If SU(N) gauge fields live in a world with a circular extra dimension, coupling there only to adjointly charged matter, the system possesses a global Z(N) symmetry. If the radius is small enough such that dimensional reduction takes place,…
We study the non restoration of symmetries with a local order parameter in field theory at finite temperature. After giving an interpretation of the phenomenon, we show that hierarchy problems are a necessary condition for its realization…
Conserved quantities are obtained and analyzed in the new models with global scale invariance recently proposed. Such models allow for non tivial scalar field potentials and masses for particles, so that the scale symmetry must be broken…
Simulations of four-dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory are performed with partial axial gauge fixing trees spanning three of the four dimensions. The remaining SU(2) gauge symmetry, global in three directions and local in one, is found…
We simulate a four dimensional self-interacting scalar field theory on the lattice at finite temperature. By varying temperature, the system undergoes a phase transition from broken phase to symmetric phase. Our data show that the…
