Symmetry Breaking of Universal type and Particular types

Abstract

The concepts of symmetry and its breakdown are investigated in two different terms according to whether the resulting asymmetry is universal or only obtained for a special configuration: we shall illustrate this by considering in the first case an example from the standard model of particles with some consequences for cosmological scenarios related to inflation and the problem of the cosmological constant, and in the second case we consider an example from specific solutions for particle dynamics and an example for a toy model of entangled spins.
