Abstract
In this paper we present results of numerical simulations and some (analytical) approximations of a compact lattice gauge theory, including an extra bare mass term for Alice fluxes. The subtle interplay between Alice fluxes and (Cheshire) magnetic charges is analysed. We determine the phase diagram and some characteristics of the model in three and four dimensions. The results of the numerical simulations in various regimes, compare well with some analytic approximations.
