Query: On the Gauge Invariance of the Decay Rate of False Vacuum   We study the gauge invariance of the decay rate of the false vacuum for the
model in which the scalar field responsible for the false vacuum decay has
gauge quantum number. In order to calculate the decay rate, one should
integrate out the field fluctuations around the classical path connecting the
false and true vacua (i.e., so-called bounce). Concentrating on the case where
the gauge symmetry is broken in the false vacuum, we show a systematic way to
perform such an integration and present a manifestly gauge-invariant formula of
the decay rate of the false vacuum.
