Quantum Properties of Periodic Instantons on a Circle
Abstract
Quantum properties of a (1+1)-dimensional scalar theory on a cylinder with a compact spatial part, namely, 0≤ x≤ L, are considered. In particular, quantum theory around the classical periodic field configurations is studied and the lifetime of a quantum periodic instanton is estimated.
