  1. Radiative Corrections as the Origin of Spontaneous Symmetry BreakingPhysical review. D. Particles, fields, gravitation, and cosmology/Physical review. D. Particles and fields · 1973 · 4,274 citations

    We investigate the possibility that radiative corrections may produce spontaneous symmetry breakdown in theories for which the semiclassical (tree) approximation does not indicate such breakdown. The simplest model in which this phenomenon occurs is the electrodynamics of massless scalar mesons.…
