Continuous symmetry analysis and systematic identification of candidate order parameters for interacting fermion models
Cheng-Hao He, Yi-Zhuang You, Xiao Yan Xu
Symmetry plays a central role in modern physics, from classifying quantum states to characterizing phases of matter through spontaneous symmetry breaking. In interacting fermionic…
Symmetric Mass Generation in a Bilayer Honeycomb Lattice with Symmetry
Cheng-Hao He, Yi-Zhuang You, Xiao Yan Xu
A central question beyond the Landau paradigm is the non-perturbative critical theory of the symmetric mass generation (SMG) transition, where strong interactions gap Dirac fermion…
Universal Dynamical Scaling of Strong-to-Weak Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in Open Quantum Systems
Chang Shu, Kai Zhang, Zhu-Xi Luo +2
Strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking (SWSSB) defines a mixed-state phase of matter--without a pure-state counterpart--in which nonlinear observables such as the Rényi-2 co…
Fractal Subsystem Symmetries, Anomalies, Boundaries, and Effective Field Theory
Heitor Casasola, Guilherme Delfino, Yizhi You +2
This work reports an extensive study of three-dimensional topological ordered phases that, in one of the directions behave like usual topological order concerning mobility of excit…
Anyon condensation web and multipartite entanglement in 2D modulated gauge theories
Guilherme Delfino, Yizhi You
In this work, we introduce an anyon condensation web that interconnects a broad class of 2D fracton gauge theories with multipolar conservation laws at a microscopic level. We find…
