We find that in these cases quantum fluctuations play a crucial role. Namely, they naturally induce both ultraviolet and infrared cutoff scales, determined by the parameters of the classical solution, beyond which this solution cannot be trusted anymore. This leads to the appearance of a broad class of new O(4) invariant instantons, which would have been singular in the absence of an ultraviolet cutoff. We apply our results to a case where the potential is unbounded from below in a linear way and in particular show how the problem of small instantons is resolved by taking into account the inevitable quantum fluctuations.
