We evaluate the energy splitting of vacua appearing in the gauge theory in the space $M_4\times S^N/Z_2$ ($N=2,3,4,5,6$ and $7$). One-loop quantum effects which come from scalar and gauge fields are considered. We calculate them at zero…

The fate of symmetries at high temperature determines the dynamics of the very early universe. It is conceivable that temperature effects favor symmetry breaking instead of restoration. Concerning global symmetries, the non-linear sigma…
We review how the phenomena of inverse symmetry breaking (and symmetry nonrestoration) may arise in the context of relativistic as well as nonrelativistic multi-scalar field theories. We discuss how the consideration of thermal effects on…
