Erratum: Fate of the false vacuum: semiclassical theory
Abstract
In the paragraph following Eq.(3.10),I assert that I have been able to prove that the bounce of minimum action is spherically symmetric.This assertion is false, as is the paper containing the purported proof to which it refers, which has been withdrawn from publication.At this time, to my knowledge, spherical symmetry of the bounce of minimum action remains an unproved assumption.I am indebted to Ian Aff lect for showing me the error of my way.

In the citing paper
“Indeed, when considering the non-perturbative stability of false vacua [20,21], if supersymmetry is unbroken the decay rate will be zero, as the euclidean action of the instanton associated to the nucleation of a “true vacuum” bubble will diverge [22][23][24].”

In the citing paper
“the DEC is violated (although by tiny amounts) by quantum effects such as Casimir energies [52], false vacua (in the Coleman-DeLuccia sense [20]), and just about in any AdS vacuum.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
