Scientific paper

A U(1) model of gravitational, Higgs and gauge fields is analyzed. Two phases of the system are considered. In the case with broken symmetry the Nielsen-Olesen configuration is obtained. In the symmetric phase a space-time metric S-squared x E1-squared is found. This appears in full analogy to the Freund-Rubin compactification due to an antisymmetric tensor field. The connection of these structures with cosmic string phenomenology is analyzed.
