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.
A chiral U(1) gauge symmetry generates an accidental Peccei-Quinn symmetry broken by mirror QCD, solving the strong CP problem without a light axion while supplying WIMP dark matter, stochastic gravitational waves, and LHC-testable colored pNGBs.
Six classes of CP-violating operators near the QCD scale produce distinct EDM patterns that enable discrimination of their origins and distinguish high-scale versus low-energy sources of the axion vacuum expectation value.
Kinetic mixing between hidden-sector fluxes and QCD's topological sector shifts the effective theta angle and produces nonzero <G tilde G>.
High-quality axion models with N_DW=1 and dark matter abundance requirement restrict the gauge breaking scale to 1.6e11-1e16 GeV, yielding a band of gravitational wave signals from two-step phase transitions consistent with current observations.
Warped extra-dimensional axion models achieve high quality when nonlocal U(1)-charged field effects are sufficiently suppressed by the warp factor and orbifold structure.
