Global phase transformation

Global gauge transformation on these vectors produces a shift in the electromagnetic phase... 

We next examine further the case of a continuous phase transformation. Consider first the situation where H = 0. As long as T > Tc and T = Tc, the global minimum of the order parameter occurs at rjo = 0 cf. Eq. (7.5.5). But for T equilibrium values of the order parameter are specified by... 

One such symmetry, which is associated with charge conservation, is gauge invariance of the first kind or global gauge invariance. The field transformation is a phase transformation... 

In a first step we will analyze the dominant condensation pattern in the scalar color antitriplet channel for a two-flavor system, i.e., we will consider the limit Ms —> 00. Looking at the transformation properties of the condensate S22 we can classify the symmetries of the 2SC phase. It is invariant under a global //(l)-symmetry generated by... 

Although many of the measurements of growth, like the ones I have already cited, might present a portrait of a company that has enjoyed a seamless path of expansion, the actual experience from innovative start-up to global brand has been less direct. I recognize four phases in our quarter-century history early start-up, explosive growth, slow growth, and transition transformation.
