Symmetry breaking in geometry

Published 27 Jun 2022 in math.DG | (2206.13401v1)

Abstract: A geometric mechanism that may, in analogy to similar notions in physics, be considered as "symmetry breaking" in geometry is described, and several instances of this mechanism in differential geometry are discussed: it is shown how spontaneous symmetry breaking may occur, and it is discussed how explicit symmetry breaking may be used to tackle certain geometric problems. A systematic study of symmetry breaking in geometry is proposed, and some preliminary thoughts on further research are formulated.
