Gravitationally dominated instantons and instability of dS, AdS and Minkowski spaces

Abstract We study the decay of the false vacuum in the regime where the quantum field theory analysis is not valid, since gravitational effects become important. This happens when the height of the barrier separating the false and the true vacuum is large, and it has implications for the instability...
