Non-Abelian global strings at chiral phase transition

We construct non-Abelian global string solutions in the UL_(N)×UR_(N)$U{(N)}_{\mathrm{L}}\times U{(N)}_{\mathrm{R}}$ linear sigma model. These strings are the most fundamental objects which are expected to form during the chiral phase transitions, because the Abelian η^′${\eta }^{\prime }$ string is marginally decomposed into N   of them. We point out Nambu–Goldstone modes of CPN−1$\mathbf{C}{P}^{N-1}$ for breaking of SUV_(N)$\mathit{SU}{(N)}_{\mathrm{V}}$ arise around a non-Abelian vortex.
