Abstract
We study a (1+1)-dimensional lambda phi(4) model with a light-cone zero mode and constant external source to describe spontaneous symmetry breaking. In the broken phase, we find degenerate vacua and discuss their stability based on effective-potential analysis. The vacuum triviality is spurious in the broken phase because these states have lower energy than Fock vacuum. Our results are based on the variational principle.
