Maxwell Construction for Scalar Field Theories with Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking
J. Alexandre, A. Tsapalis
Using a non-perturbative approximation for the partition function of a complex scalar model, which features spontaneous symmetry breaking, we explicitly derive the flattening of th…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking and linear effective potentials
Jean Alexandre
The convexity of a scalar effective potential is a well known property, and, in the situation of spontaneous symmetry breaking, leads to the so-called Maxwell construction, charact…

On higher-order corrections in a four-fermion Lifshitz model
J. Alexandre, J. Brister, N. Houston
We study a flavour-violating four-fermion interaction in the Lifshitz context, in 3+1 dimensions and with a critical exponent z=3. This model is renormalizable, and features dynami…
