Abstract: (APS)
The number of parameters entering a Euclidean Yang-Mills solution with topological charge k is determined for a theory constructed from an arbitrary Lie group G. It is shown that this number is precisely that required to specify the position, scale, and relative group orientation of k independent solutions each with minimum topological charge 1. Such minimal single-pseudoparticle solutions can be obtained by embedding the familiar SU2 pseudoparticle of Belavin et al. into the general Lie group.- GAUGE FIELD THEORY: VECTOR
