We consider a theory of scalar QED on a spatially compact 1+1-dimensional spacetime. By considering a constant electric field pointing down the compact dimension, we compute the quantum effective action by integrating out the scalar degrees of freedom in the Euclidean sector. Working in the saddle-point approximation we uncover two novel branches/physical regimes upon analytically continuing back to real time and discover a new result, hitherto unreported in previous literature. Implications of our results are discussed.

De Sitter space constraints on brane tensions and couplings
hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

The Festina Lente bound on particle masses is generalized to p-branes with world-volume Chern-Simons couplings, giving tension bounds in de Sitter space that string theory D-branes satisfy.
