Abstract
The stability of the ground state and the possibility of the appearance of a phase transition in the superrenormalizable nonlocal Yukawa-type field theory are investigated. A variational estimation of the upper bound for the effective potential is obtained. It is shown that there exists a finite critical value for the boson-fermion coupling constant. The initial vacuum becomes unstable when this coupling constant exceeds the critical value. As a result, the system under consideration goes into the phase with nonvanishing expectation value of the field.
