Scientific paper

It is shown that a new type of phase transition, namely, a pure gravitational one, could exist for a certain range of parameters of the tree gravitational Lagrangian. The symmetry-breaking mechanism responsible for the transition is due to vacuum-polarization effects of matter fields. It is argued that if the Universe had undergone this transition at late times this could be the source of structures in the Universe.
