SU(2) Yang-Mills equations in gauge-invariant variables on three-dimensional sphere

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

ASU(2) gauge theory on the three-dimensional sphereS 3 is formulated in gauge-invariant variables. The Yang-Mills equations are written as Einstein equations with the right-hand side of a very simple form. A particular model where these equations reduce to a single differential equation of second order is studied. Then, a numerical method is used to obtain a specific solution of the corresponding equation.
