  text: We consider the Fröhlich polaron model in the strong coupling limit. It is
    well‐known that to leading order the ground state energy is given by the (classical)
    Pekar energy. In this work, we establish the subleading correction, describing
    quantum fluctuation about the classical limit. Our proof applies to a model of
    a confined polaron, where both the electron and the polarization field are restricted
    to a set of finite volume, with linear size determined by the natural length scale
    of the Pekar problem.
