Institut de Physique Théorique, Université Catholique de Louvain, Louvain-La-Neuve, Belgium aut A note on gauge symmetry breaking [Elektronische Daten] [U. Moschella] We show that the breaking of Abelian gauge symmetry implies the existence of dipole singularities in the correlation functions of the (Abelian) Higgs model. We also show that the noninvariance of the Wightman functions does not preclude the implementability of the global gauge symmetry. An explicit example of gauge symmetry breaking (Ferrari's model) is discussed.
