High-quality Axion Strings from Monopole Strings
Abstract
Five-dimensional 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole strings whose cores restore a non-abelian gauge symmetry become axion strings for extra-dimensional axions. The parametric separation between the string tension and the scale of quantum gravity admits a viable post-inflationary cosmology for high-quality axion dark matter.
