Abstract: (Elsevier)

It is shown that in Yang-Mills theory the vanishing of the radiative corrections to the matrix element of the topological charge is a manifestation of the index theorem for the operator, which enters the bilinear part of the Yang-Mills action in the background field gauge.

gauge field theory: Yang-Mills
charge: topological
perturbation theory: higher-order
renormalization
regularization
background field
index theorem
gluon: propagator
radiative correction
quantum electrodynamics: external field
