Ruling out Infinite-Time Bubbling under SO(4)-Equivariant Yang--Mills Flow on π4Γ SU(2)
Abstract
We study the Yang--Mills flow on π4 restricted to SO(4)-equivariant connections on the trivial SU(2) bundle. It was expected that antipodal instanton--anti-instanton configurations would lead to infinite-time singularities along the flow. We show that this does not occur. Moreover, for any smooth equivariant initial condition, the flow converges to the trivial flat connection.
