Abstract: (Springer)
At a solution of the Yang-Mills equations onS4, or the Yang-Mills-Higgs equation on ℝ3, the hessian of the action functional defines a natural second order, elliptic operator. The number of negative eigenvalues of this operator is bounded below by a multiple of the relevant topological charge. The proof of this assertion requires a relative index theorem for Dirac-type operators on ℝn,n≧3.- GAUGE FIELD THEORY: YANG-MILLS
