We make the simple observation that, because of global symmetry violating higher-dimension operators expected to be induced by Planck-scale physics, textures are generically much too short-lived to be of use for large-scale structure formation.

  1. Specially Embedding a Composite Axion Model

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Special embedding of the composite axion and QCD gauge groups into a larger product gauge group reduces the domain wall number to unity and induces a controlled bias term from UV instantons that destabilizes the walls.
