Dynamical symmetry breaking

Dynamical symmetry breaking

In condensed matter physics and particle physics, dynamical symmetry breaking is a special form of spontaneous symmetry breaking, where the ground state of the system has reduced symmetry properties compared to its theoretical description (Lagrangian).

In the case of dynamical symmetry breaking, the symmetry-breaking process is due to the interactions of the objects within the system. In physical theories this is often related to the creation of a Fermionic condensate, for example the Quark condensate, which is connected to the dynamical breaking of Chiral symmetry in Quantum chromodynamics.
