Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I established a general theory of spontaneous symmetry breaking, Nobel-prize-winning theory by Yoichiro Nambu, in a broad area of astro, particle, condensed matter, and atomic physics. I formulated an effective field theory that can predict unambiguously how many gapless Nambu-Goldstone bosons are there, and how they behave. I extended the case to gauged symmetries, and showed that spatial rotational symmetry can be spontaneously broken. In addition, I developed applications to the cosmic dark matter as well as standard model of particle physics, and proposed a new methodology dubbed covariant derivative expansion to construct effective field theories. I also proposed a new mechanism for spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry.
