Emergent higher symmetry breaking without topological order?
In this paper prof. Wen states that (p.6)
a spontaneous higher symmetry broken state always corresponds to a topologically ordered state.
Are there examples of simple (or not) quantum spin models ...

Goldstone mode as spin wave in 2D?
I'm trying to understand how Goldstone modes destroy long range order in 1D and 2D spin lattice.
I started with a spin chain, using 1D XY-model, which has continuous symmetry. $H=- \sum_{<i j>} ...
