论文摘要
正如可以用能量来理解自发对称性的破坏一样,新兴的对称性(更确切地说,其“大小”和结构)也可以通过自由能来解释。特别是,在重新归一化的组流向有理保形场理论中,我们发现红外对称类别是通过一致的模块化张量类别实现的,具有最小的自由能。为了进行演示,我们研究了非自动理论。
Just as spontaneous symmetry breaking can be understood in terms of energy, emergent symmetry (more precisely, its `size' and structure) can also be explained by free energy. In particular, in renormalization group flow to rational conformal field theory, we find infrared symmetry category is realized by consistent modular tensor category with minimal free energy. For demonstration, we study non-unitary theories.
