Semiglobal Alice Strings
G. Dvali, G. Senjanovi'{c}
Abstract
We show that in certain theories with topologically trivial quotient space of spontaneously broken gauge symmetry there can exist topologically stable strings that carry nonabelian gauge flux. These objects result from the ``accidental'' global degeneracy of the vacuum which makes it topologically nontrivial. In particular, some models contain the semiglobal analog of the Alice strings.
