Curvature Grafted by Instantons

Abstract

We show that an instanton with high charge can provoke the creation of extra curvature on the space that holds it. Geometrically, this corresponds to a new surgery operation, which we name grafting. Curvature around a sphere increases by grafting when the charge of an instanton decays.
