Abstract
We explore some of the peculiarities of axion cosmic string solutions in the context of the string axiverse, as well as an unusual vacuum decay process involving axion domain walls and their Chern-Simons interactions that is possible in theories with axion monodromy (and possibly in certain theories of axion inflation).
