Global aspects of spaces of vacua

Abstract We study “vacuum crossing”, which occurs when the vacua of a theory are exchanged as we vary some periodic parameter θ in a closed loop. We show that vacuum crossing is a useful non-perturbative tool to study strongly-coupled quantum field theories, since finding vacuum crossing in a weakly...
