Abstract
Scalar condensation, the well-established Higgs phenomenon, is the standard paradigm for building up renormalizable gauge-invariant theories of massive gauge bosons. In this short note, we demonstrate the uniqueness of the Higgs vacuum state under the possible presence of fermion condensates in a renormalizable U(1) model. In the same context, we explain why spontaneous spin-statistics violation is technically not admitted in conventional Quantum Field Theory.
