The matrix elements of the quadrupole variables and canonic conjugate momenta, emerging from collective nuclear models are calculated within a $SU(1,1)times O(5)$ basis. Using a harmonic oscillator implementation of the SU(1,1) degree of freedom, it can be shown that the matrix elements of the quadrupole phonon creation and annihilation operators can be calculated in a pure algebraic way, making use of an intermediate state method.

A collective bands of positive and negative parity could be composed of the vibrations and rotations. The rotations of the octupole configurations can be based either on the axial or the non-axial octupole vibrations. A consistent approach to the quadrupole-octupole collective vibrations coupled with the rotational motion enables to distinguish between various scenarios of disappearance of the E2 transitions in negative-parity bands. The here presented theoretical estimates are compared with the recent experimental energies and transition probabilities in and between the ground-state and low-energy negaive-parity bands in $^{156}$Dy. A realistic collective Hamiltonian contains the potential energy term obtained through the macroscopic-microscopic Strutinsky-like method with particle-number-projected BCS approach and deformation-dependent mass tensor defined in vibrational-rotational, nine-dimensional collective space. The symmetrization procedure ensures the uniqueness of the Hamiltonian eigensolutions with respect to the laboratory coordinate system. This quadrupole-octupole collective approach may also allow to find and/or verify some fingerprints of possible high-order symmetries (e.g. tetrahedral, octahedral,...) in nuclear collective bands.
Assuming that the time-evolution of the self-consistent mean field is determined by five pairs of collective coordinate and collective momentum, we microscopically derive the collective Hamiltonian for low-frequency quadrupole modes of excitation. We show that the five-dimensional collective Schrodinger equation is capable of describing large-amplitude quadrupole shape dynamics seen as shape coexistence/mixing phenomena. We focus on basic ideas and recent advances of the approaches based on the time-dependent mean-field theory, but relations to other time-independent approaches are also briefly discussed.
We show how Einstein-Cartan gravity can accommodate both global scale and local scale (Weyl) invariance. To this end, we construct a wide class of models with nonpropagaing torsion and a nonminimally coupled scalar field. In phenomenological applications the scalar field is associated with the Higgs boson. For global scale invariance, an additional field --- dilaton --- is needed to make the theory phenomenologically viable. In the case of the Weyl symmetry, the dilaton is spurious and the theory reduces to a sub-class of one-field models. In both scenarios of scale invariance, we derive an equivalent metric theory and discuss possible implications for phenomenology.
We discuss the nature of the low-frequency quadrupole vibrations from small-amplitude to large-amplitude regimes. We consider full five-dimensional quadrupole dynamics including three-dimensional rotations restoring the broken symmetries as well as axially symmetric and asymmetric shape fluctuations. Assuming that the time-evolution of the self-consistent mean field is determined by five pairs of collective coordinates and collective momenta, we microscopically derive the collective Hamiltonian of Bohr and Mottelson, which describes low-frequency quadrupole dynamics. We show that the five-dimensional collective Schrodinger equation is capable of describing large-amplitude quadrupole shape dynamics seen as shape coexistence/mixing phenomena. We summarize the modern concepts of microscopic theory of large-amplitude collective motion, which is underlying the microscopic derivation of the Bohr-Mottelson collective Hamiltonian.
We present a detailed discussion of the structure of the low-lying positive-parity energy spectrum of $^{12}$C from a no-core shell-model perspective. The approach utilizes a fraction of the usual shell-model space and extends its multi-shell reach via the symmetry-based no-core symplectic shell model (NCSpM) with a simple, physically-informed effective interaction. We focus on the ground-state rotational band, the Hoyle state and its $2^+$ and $4^+$ excitations, as well as the giant monopole $0^+$ resonance, which is a vibrational breathing mode of the ground state. This, in turn, allows us to address the open question about the structure of the Hoyle state and its rotational band. In particular, we find that the Hoyle state is best described through deformed prolate collective modes rather than vibrational modes, while we show that the higher-lying giant monopole $0^+$ resonance resembles the oblate deformation of the $^{12}$C ground state. In addition, we identify the giant monopole $0^+$ and quadrupole $2^+$ resonances of selected light and intermediate-mass nuclei, along with other observables of $^{12}$C, including matter rms radii, electric quadrupole moments, as well as $E2$ and $E0$ transition rates.
