A ball is initially located at the top of the central hill (C). This position is an unstable equilibrium: a very small perturbation will cause it to fall to one of the two stable wells left (L) or right (R). Even if the hill is symmetric and there is no reason for the ball to fall on either side, the observed final state is not symmetric.

In [[physics]], '''symmetry breaking''' is a [[phenomenon]] in which (infinitesimally) small [[Quantum fluctuation|fluctuation]]s acting on a [[system]] crossing a [[critical point (thermodynamics)|critical point]] decide the system's fate, by determining which branch of a [[Bifurcation theory|bifurcation]] is taken. To an outside observer unaware of the fluctuations (or "[[Thermal noise|noise]]"), the choice will appear arbitrary. This process is called [[symmetry (physics)|symmetry]] "breaking", because such transitions usually bring the system from a symmetric but [[randomness|disorderly]] [[Quantum state|state]] into one or more definite states. Symmetry breaking is thought to play a major role in [[pattern formation]].

In explicit symmetry breaking, the [[equations of motion]] describing a system are variant under the broken symmetry. In [[Hamiltonian mechanics]] or [[Lagrangian Mechanics]], this happens when there is at least one term in the Hamiltonian (or Lagrangian) that explicitly breaks the given symmetry.

In spontaneous symmetry breaking, the [[equations of motion]] of the system are invariant, but the system is not.

One of the first cases of broken symmetry discussed in the physics literature is related to the form taken by a uniformly rotating body of [[Incompressible flow|incompressible fluid]] in [[gravitational]] and [[hydrostatic equilibrium]]. [[Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi|Jacobi]] and soon later [[Liouville]], in 1834, discussed the fact that a tri-axial ellipsoid was an equilibrium solution for this problem when the kinetic energy compared to the gravitational energy of the rotating body exceeded a certain critical value. The axial symmetry presented by the McLaurin spheroids is broken at this bifurcation point. Furthermore, above this bifurcation point, and for constant angular momentum, the solutions that minimize the kinetic energy are the ''non''-axially symmetric [[Jacobi ellipsoid]]s instead of the [[Maclaurin spheroid]]s.

对称性破缺可以分为显式对称性破缺自发对称性破缺两种类型,其特征是运动方程或基态能否保持不变。


Explicit symmetry breaking显式对称性破缺


显式对称性破缺中,系统的运动方程会发生变化。在哈密顿力学或拉格朗日力学中,假若系统的哈密顿量(或拉格朗日量)至少一项违反某种对称性,导致系统的物理行为不具备这种对称性,就发生了显式对称性破缺。该术语特别适用于大致具有对称性、违反对称项目很少的系统。


Spontaneous symmetry breaking自发对称性破缺


自发对称性破缺中,系统的运动方程是不变的,但系统发生了变化。这是因为系统的背景(时空)是非恒定的。这种对称破缺用序参量进行参数化。这类对称破缺的一个特殊情况是动力学对称性破缺


Examples 实例

对称性破缺可以涵盖以下任何一种情况:[2]


  • 某些结构的随机形成破坏了物理学基本定律的精确对称性;


  • 物理学中最小能量状态的对称性比系统本身少的情形;


  • 系统的实际状态由于明显对称的状态不稳定而不能反映动力学的基本对称性的情况(稳定性是以局部不对称为代价的) ;


  • 理论方程可能具有某种对称性,但其解可能没有(对称性是“隐藏的”)的情况。



在物理学文献中讨论的首批对称性破缺案例之一,与不可压缩流体在重力和流体静力平衡中均匀旋转的形式有关。在1834年,Jacobi [3]和后来的 Liouville [4]讨论了这样一个事实: 当旋转物体的动能相对于引力势能超过一定的临界值时,这个问题的平衡解是三轴椭球。在这个分叉点上,麦克劳林椭球体的轴对称性被破坏。此外,在这个分叉点之上,对于常数角动量,使动能最小化的解是非轴对称的 Jacobi 椭球,而不是 Maclaurin 椭球。
