Abstract
Spontaneous symmetry breaking of a gauge theory with topological charge is studied in an arbitrary space-time. Sets of relations on the topological charges are found which, if not satisfied, inhibit the symmetry breaking from that particular sector. Different solutions to these relations correspond to a symmetry breaking into topologically inequivalent gauge sectors of the residual symmetry group.
