Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This presentation is an analysis of the role of symmetry in second-order quantum phase transitions. It seeks to explain why transitions between phases of systems, associated with different symmetries, exhibit critical phenomena. It transpires that a system in one phase, tends to hold onto the symmetry associated with that phase until a breaking point is reached at which a rapid transition occurs to a new phase associated with a different symmetry. Understanding what is happening presents the challenge of explaining how a system "holds on" to a symmetry in the face of strong symmetry-breaking interactions. The explanation is of fundamental interest in physics, for understanding why models with built in symmetries often work extremely well even when the models ignore large symmetry-breaking interactions that are known to be present. When this phenomenon occurs, we say that the system has a quasidynamical symmetry. This concept is of interest in mathematics because it turns out that quasidyndamical symmetries are the physical realizations of a new concept in group theory, which we refer to as an embedded representation.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
