We give a mathematically rigorous proof of Nekrasov's conjecture: the integration in the equivariant cohomology over the moduli spaces of instantons on $\mathbb R^4$ gives a deformation of the Seiberg-Witten prepotential for N=2 SUSY…
This is a self-contained set of lecture notes on instantons in (super) Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions and in quantum mechanics. First the basics are derived from scratch: the regular and singular one-instanton solutions for Yang-Mills…
We discuss the Atiyah-Drinfeld-Hitchin-Manin (ADHM) construction of U(N) instantons in noncommutative (NC) space and prove the one-to-one correspondence between moduli spaces of the noncommutative instantons and the ADHM data, together with…
The role of instantons in three dimensional N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills theory is studied, especially in relation to the issue of confinement. The instanton-induced low energy effective action is derived by extending the dilute gas…

We investigate instantons on manifolds with Killing spinors and their cones. Examples of manifolds with Killing spinors include nearly Kaehler 6-manifolds, nearly parallel G_2-manifolds in dimension 7, Sasaki-Einstein manifolds, and…

We study finite action anti-self-dual Yang-Mills connections on the multi-Taub-NUT space. We establish the curvature and the harmonic spinors decay rates and compute the index of the associated Dirac operator. This is the first in a series…
Studied are the moduli spaces of Yang-Mills connections on finitely generated projective modules associated with noncommutative flows. It is actually shown that they are homeomorphic to those on the dual modules associated with the dual…
We present a construction of self-dual Yang-Mills connections on the Taub-NUT space. We illustrate it by finding explicit expressions for all SU(2) instantons of instanton number one and generic monodromy at infinity.
In this paper, we show that various noncommutative integrable equations can be derived from noncommutative anti-self-dual Yang-Mills equations in the split signature, which include noncommutative versions of Korteweg-de Vries, Non-Linear…
We study the notion of twisted bundles on noncommutative space. Due to the existence of projective operators in the algebra of functions on the noncommutative space, there are twisted bundles with non-constant dimension. The U(1) instanton…
We evaluate the Seiberg-Witten map for solitons and instantons in noncommutative gauge theories in various dimensions. We show that solitons constructed using the projection operators have delta-function supports when expressed in the…
We construct an octonionic instanton solution to the seven dimensional Yang-Mills theory based on the exceptional gauge group $G_2$ which is the automorphism group of the division algebra of octonions. This octonionic instanton has an…
