Dynamical Symmetry Breaking

Cambridge University Press eBooks, pp. 317–323

Abstract

In this chapter, the Gross–Neveu model of particle physics is compared to a model for charge density waves in condensed matter physics. Both are shown to be subject to dynamical symmetry breaking, and the relation between dynamical and spontaneous symmetry breaking is discussed.
