Solitons and spontaneous symmetry breaking in 2 and 4 dimensions
Manfried Faber, Joachim Wabnig, Andrei N. Ivanov
TL;DR
This paper explores how mass generation can occur alongside spontaneous symmetry breaking in both 1+1 and 3+1 dimensional systems, providing new insights into fundamental field theory mechanisms.
Contribution
It demonstrates the simultaneous occurrence of mass generation and spontaneous symmetry breaking in different spacetime dimensions, which is a novel theoretical insight.
Findings
Mass generation can occur with spontaneous symmetry breaking in 1+1 dimensions.
Mass generation can occur with spontaneous symmetry breaking in 3+1 dimensions.
The study provides a unified view of symmetry breaking and mass generation mechanisms.
Abstract
We show that mass generation in 1+1 and 3+1 dimensions may occur together with spontaneous symmetry breaking.
