Phys. Rev. D 66, 105028 (2002) [5 pages]Cancellation of global anomalies in spontaneously broken gauge theoriesReceived 9 July 2002; published 27 November 2002 We discuss the generalization to global gauge anomalies of the familiar procedure for the cancellation of local gauge anomalies in effective theories of spontaneously broken symmetries. We illustrate this mechanism in a recently proposed six-dimensional extension of the standard model. © 2002 The American Physical Society URL:
