On quasi-self-dual fields in \(N=4\) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (Q1097536)

A general representation for a quasi-self-dual gauge field which is a generalization of the 't Hooft ansatz is obtained in the Euclidean conformally invariant Yang-Mills theory with a sextuplet of real scalar fields - the boson sector of \(N=4\) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The existence of an O(4)-symmetric quasi-self-dual solution in the region \(g^ 2>0\) is proved. An explicit example of the quasi-self-dual instanton in the region \(g^ 2<0\) is constructed.
