Abstract
The properties of the ground state of a classical self-interacting twisted scalar field on a two-dimensional Einstein cylinder are discussed. In particular there is a spontaneous breakdown of the spatial translational invariance of the twisted ground state as a characteristic length increases across a critical value. Similar properties are shown to hold in a four-dimensional model. Finally, it is shown that there exist four-dimensional models which do not have any finite-energy twisted scalar fields.
