摘要:
There are three ways in which an expected symmetry may not hold exactly: first, if the basic laws do not respect the symmetry exactly; second, if the initial or boundary conditions do not obey the symmetry; and third, by a spontaneous breakdown, which can happen in two ways, here called SBS1 and SBS2, which will be defined and illustrated. Similar to them is the symmetry-breaking approximation, in which a symmetric system is approximated by an asymmetric formalism to make it easier to handle certain correlations.
