Symmetries are manifested in nature through degeneracies in the spectra of physical systems. In the case of heavy deformed nuclei, when described in the framework of the Interacting Boson Model, within which correlated proton (neutron) pairs are approximated as bosons, the ground state band has no symmetry partner, while the degeneracy between the first excited beta and gamma bands is broken through the use of three-body and/or four-body terms. In the framework of the proxy-SU(3) model, in which an approximate SU(3) symmetry of fermions is present, the same three-body and/or four-body operators are used for breaking the degeneracy between the ground state band and the first excited gamma band. Experimentally accessible quantities being independent of any free parameters are pointed out in the latter case.

The rapid increase of computational power over the last several years has allowed detailed microscopic investigations of the structure of many nuclei in terms of Relativistic Mean Field theories as well as in the framework of the no-core Shell Model. In heavy deformed nuclei, in which microscopic calculations remain a challenge, algebraic models based on the SU(3) symmetry offer specific predictions, parameter-independent in several cases, directly comparable to experimental data. Two different approximate models for heavy deformed nuclei based on the SU(3) symmetry, the pseudo-SU(3) and the proxy-SU(3) schemes will be discussed and the compatibility between their predictions for the nuclear deformation parameters will be shown. In particular, the dominance of prolate over oblate shapes in the ground states of even-even nuclei and the prolate to oblate shape phase transition occurring in heavy rare earths will be considered.
The systematics of experimental energy differences between the levels of the ground state band and the gamma-1 band in even-even nuclei are studied as a function of the angular momentum L, demonstrating a decrease of the energy differences with incre asing L, in contrast to what is seen in vibrational, gamma-unstable, and triaxial nuclei. After a short review of the relevant predictions of several simple collective models, it is shown that this decrease is caused in the framework of the proxy-SU(3) scheme by the same three-body and/or four body operators which break the degeneracy between the ground state band and the gamma-1 band, predicting in parallel the correct form of odd-even staggering within the gamma-1 bands.
We present a review of the pseudo-SU(3) shell model and its application to heavy deformed nuclei. The model have been applied to describe the low energy spectra, B(E2) and B(M1) values. A systematic study of each part of the interaction within the Ha miltonian was carried out. The study leads us to a consistent method of choosing the parameters in the model. A systematic application of the model for a sequence of rare earth nuclei demonstrates that an overarching symmetry can be used to predict the onset of deformation as manifested through low-lying collective bands.The scheme utilizes an overarching sp(4,R) algebraic framework.

Energy levels of the four lowest bands in 160,162,164Dy and 168Er, B(E2) transition strengths between the levels, and the B(M1) strength distribution of the ground state, all calculated within the framework of pseudo-SU(3) model, are presented. Reali stic single-particle energies and quadrupole-quadrupole and pairing interaction strengths fixed from systematics were used in the calculations. The strengths of four rotor-like terms, all small relative to the other terms in the interaction, were adjusted to give an overall best fit to the energy spectra. The procedure yielded consistent parameter sets for the four nuclei.
Spontaneous symmetry breaking in non-relativistic quantum systems has previously been addressed in the framework of effective field theory. Low-lying excitations are constructed from Nambu-Goldstone modes using symmetry arguments only. We extend that approach to finite systems. The approach is very general. To be specific, however, we consider atomic nuclei with intrinsically deformed ground states. The emergent symmetry breaking in such systems requires the introduction of additional degrees of freedom on top of the Nambu-Goldstone modes. Symmetry arguments suffice to construct the low-lying states of the system. In deformed nuclei these are vibrational modes each of which serves as band head of a rotational band.
