Abstract: In the present paper, we find a system of non-linear ODEs that gives rotationally invariant solutions to the Kapustin-Witten equations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space. We explicitly solve these ODEs in some special cases and find decaying rational solutions, which provide solutions to the Kapustin-Witten equations. The imaginary parts of the solutions are singular. By rescaling, we find some limit behavior for these singular solutions. In addition, for any integer $k$, we can construct a 5$|k|$ dimensional family of $C^1$ solutions to the Kapustin-Witten equations on Euclidean space, again with singular imaginary parts. Moreover, we find solutions to the Kapustin-Witten equations over $S^{3}imes(0,+infty)$ with the Nahm pole boundary condition.
