Aug 13 at 7:56 comment added Nairit Sahoo @Sanjana This is kinda discussed here
Jul 25 at 21:11 comment added Sanjana What is the loophole in the argument where we apply (3) in 2 dimensions where the photon becomes massive due to loop corrections?
Jul 18 at 12:54 comment added Cosmas Zachos @MKO ... but you can get there, through extra interactions, somehow .
Jul 18 at 7:07 comment added Prahar The scalar field in $\phi^4$ theory is not a Goldstone boson.
Jul 18 at 6:54 comment added MKO Thank you. What happens in $\phi^4$-theory? It has no symmetry $\phi\to \phi+a$.
Jul 17 at 19:31 comment added Cosmas Zachos Pedantic nitpick on 1: It is possible to have SSB due to radiative corrections on a theory lacking it, so, then, it is the renormalized effective theory goldston that is massless.
