Abstract
Recently, in studies of holographic models and hydrodynamics with spontaneous breaking of approximate symmetries, it has been proposed that the damping of pseudo-Goldstone modes at finite temperatures is universally constrained in the way that

) model by performing the functional renormalization group calculations at the full quantum and stochastic level within the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism. We find that, away from the critical temperature, the proposed relation is always valid. When the temperature is very close to the critical value such that the mass of the Higgs mode is comparable to the mass of the pseudo-Goldstone modes, the pseudo-Goldstone damping displays a novel scaling behavior that follows
