We study the question of whether a sequence of non-instanton Yang-Mills connections can limit to a bubbling configuration composed only of instantons. In the case that the Uhlenbeck limit and the bubbles are of opposite charge, we determine…
A geometrization of the Yang-Mills field, by which an SU(2) gauge theory becomes equivalent to a 3-space geometry - or optical system - is examined. In a first step, ambient space remains Euclidean and current problems on flat space can be…
