Abstract
An index theorem for the anti-self-dual deformation complex on anti-self-dual orbifolds with singularities conjugate to ADE-type is proved. In 1988, Claude Lebrun gave examples of scalar-flat K\"ahler ALE metrics with negative mass, on the total space of the bundle over . A corollary of this index theorem is that the moduli space of anti-self-dual ALE metrics near each of these metrics has dimension at least , and thus for the LeBrun metrics admit a plethora of non-trivial anti-self-dual deformations.
