Symmetry breaking in linearly coupled dynamical lattices.
We examine one- and two-dimensional models of linearly coupled lattices of the discrete-nonlinear-Schrödinger type. Analyzing ground states of the system with equal powers (norms) in the two components, we find a symmetry-breaking phenomenon beyond a critical value of the total power. Asymmetric states, with unequal powers in their components, emerge through a subcritical pitchfork bifurcation,...
متن کاملDynamical Electroweak Symmetry Breaking
These lectures explored the idea that the physics of electroweak symmetry breaking arises from novel strong dynamics. We started from the familiar strong-interaction dynamics of QCD, introduced simple dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking models whose strong dynamics imitate those of QCD, analyzed the limitations of these models, and finally moved on to theories whose dynamics differ from tho...
متن کاملDynamical Electroweak Symmetry Breaking
We review the status of and recent developments in dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking, concentrating on the ideas of technicolour and top quark condensates. The emphasis is on the essential physical ideas and experimental implications rather than on detailed mathematical formalism. After a general overview of the subject, we give a first introduction to technicolour, and extended technicol...
متن کاملImplications of dynamical symmetry breaking
An analysis is presented of the physical implications of theories in which the masses of the intermediate vector bosons arise from a dynamical symmetry breaking. In the absence of elementary spin-zero fields or bare fermion masses, such theories are necessarily invariant to zeroth order in the weak and electromagnetic gauge interactions under a global U(N) 8U(N) symmetry, where N is the number ...
متن کامل– 1 – Dynamical Electroweak Symmetry Breaking
In theories of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking, the electroweak interactions are broken to electromagnetism by the vacuum expectation value of a fermion bilinear. These theories may thereby avoid the introduction of fundamental scalar particles, of which we have no examples in nature. In this note, we review the status of experimental searches for the particles predicted in technicolor,...
