dc.descriptionIt is possible to construct models based on warped extra dimensions in which electroweak symmetry breaking takes place without the introduction of any Higgs fields. This breaking can occur through the judiciuous choice of boundary conditions applied to gauge fields living in the bulk. One then finds that the fifth components of these bulk fields act as the Goldstone bosons, even for the would-be zero modes of the Kaluza-Klein tower. In this talk I will discuss the phenomenology of such scenarios, in particular, the problems associated with the construction of realistic models due to the simultaneous constraints imposed by precision electroweak data, present collider search limits and the requirement of perturabtive unitarity in $W_L^+W_L^-$ elastic scattering. Future collider signatures for such scenarios are also discussed.
