Abstract

We consider a formalism to describe the false-vacuum decay of a scalar field in gauge theories in non-perturbative regimes. We find that the larger the gauge coupling with respect to the self-coupling of the scalar, the shallower the local minimum of the unstable vacuum, to the point where it disappears. This offers the possibility to obtain a consistent picture of early universe cosmology: at high temperatures, a false-vacuum decay is strongly favored and the universe naturally evolves towards a stable state.

非微扰规整理论中的有效势
我们考虑用一种形式主义来描述非微扰状态下规理论中标量场的假真空衰变。我们发现,相对于标量的自耦合而言,量规耦合越大,不稳定真空的局部最小值就越浅,甚至消失。这为获得早期宇宙学的一致图景提供了可能:在高温下,假真空衰变受到强烈青睐,宇宙自然会向稳定状态演化。
