Local Nahm transform and singularity formation of ASD connections

Differential Geometry 2017-12-05 v1 Operator Algebras

Abstract

This paper develops a local analogue of the ADHM construction, which characterises ASD instantons defined over smooth bounded domains inside Euclidean R4\mathbb{R}^4 diffeomorphic to the 4-ball, in terms of infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces and bounded Hermitian linear operators satisfying an analogue of the ADHM equation. Morever, we describe the degeneration of this construction when a family of instantons develops a curvature singularity at the origin.
