Frank Wilczek: Symmetries of Time in Matter

Abstract

Time translation and time reversal are accurate symmetries of fundamental laws, but they can be violated in interesting ways within material systems. I will discuss some new developments on these themes: time crystals based on ferroelectrics and on Q-balls; the question of $T$ violation in biology; and a remarkable potential universality class related to (emergent) axion physics.
