Chaotic instantons in scalar field theory

Published 28 Jul 2016 in hep-th | (1607.08360v1)

Abstract: We consider a new class of instantons in context of quantum field theory of a scalar field coupled with a chaotic background source field. We show how the instanton associated to the quantum tunneling from a metastable false to the true vacuum will be corrected by an exponential enhancement factor. Possible implications are discussed.
