Phase transition with change of symmetry as bifurcation of the solution of a nonlinear integral equation

E. E. Tareeva


Abstract: A phase transition with change of space symmetry is described in terms of bifurcation of the solution of a nonlinear integral equation of Hammerstein type. The change in the symmetry on the transition and the dependence of the order parameter on the temperature are considered. The results of Landau's phenomenological theory are obtained as one of the special cases.
