Abstract
We investigate a theory of gauge fields over multiple bundles, i.e., principal bundles constructed over base spaces which are principal bundles themselves. The Higgs–Kibble field is introduced geometrically, together with the quartic potential. Results of Forgács and Manton are interpreted in this scheme. We also discuss a spherically symmetric ansatz which yields the quartic potential introduced by ‘t Hooft.
