Stable zero-energy Polonyi vacuum
ID: stable-zero-energy-polonyi-vacuum
For and positive , the Polonyi model has a unique zero-energy global minimum at , . Writing and , its potential bracket is , a sum of nonnegative terms. The real and imaginary curvatures are and . The other zero-energy stationary point with and is a saddle point. The stable vacuum has nonzero supergravity auxiliary field, so it has supersymmetry breaking even with zero cosmological constant. The branch does not fix these values.
